Carousel lyrics
by Lil Xtra
[Chorus]
Round and round on a carousel
I wanna get off but I can't
Nothing I do ever works out and I'm right back at the start
[Verse 1]
Slip off of a plane in my hometown
I hate the way you always look down
On me, you're never gonna think that
Whatever I am is where I wanna be now
I wanna believe in your good intentions
I always seem to let you down
I always fail and in your predictions
Push my head and watch me drown
Pull it in, count to ten, blow it back out
Broken down from a pound to a stack now
Broken but hopin' you'll hear this now
As the words fall right out of my mouth
I don't wanna see you in my mentions
Every time you let me down
I'm better off without my suspicions
You're better off without me around
[Chorus]
Round and round on a carousel
I wanna get off but I can't
Nothing I do ever works out and I'm right back at the start
[Verse 2]
To the start of my memories
Know I'm f*cking with my heart and you're defending me
It's hard to believe that you got me to see
That on my motherf*cking own is the way I'm supposed to be, so
I suppose opportunities grow
But do I really give a f*ck if you won't be at my show?
On and on, always stressing about the songs that I wrote
On and on, when the world ends, nobody knows
But while the world spins, I got lots of places to go
I got some changes I want to make
I got some money to blow
And on the day I die I can't take that sh*t with me so
I'ma try to do something that you remember me for
[Outro]
Round and round on a carousel
I wanna get off but I can't
Nothing I do ever works out and I'm right back at the start
