I the Mighty - Carousel lyrics
[I the Mighty - Carousel lyrics]
I think I've had enough of
Your world for today
My head has opened up and
Your pictures fall like rain
In front of my face they spin
We were corresponding shapes like the
Rocks in a ledge
Now this puzzle has been rained upon
And the corners lost their edge
Nothing fit's as it once did
But at least we had finished at
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
And what's wrong with that? Nothing, I guess
So I entertain my mind with
Little ticks and movie flicks
Combinations of quirky comedies
But they've all got romantic twists
And when I can't forget, I write
That's how this whole thing came to be
It helps me when I'm lonely, yeah
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
And what's wrong with that? Nothing, I guess
(Works) so I guess you're right
(This circle never works)
I did abhor the awkward silence we endured
(This cycle of the poet and his dame)
And spoke a truce to stop the swell
(Who never could explain this tired plot)
And slow this spinning carousel
(Insistent it would stop)
Yet still it spun from time to time
Laced with mistrust that cracked the spine
(Convinced that every problem
Soon would rest)
This feeble frame just would not hold
(That bad things at their
Best would fix themselves)
And sparked the drifting of two souls
(But those things you just can't tell)
I am not ready nor deserve a line of love
(And it's taunting in this
Straight jacket of hope)
That can't be blurred into a
Shallow blotch of lust
(It blinds and it disrupts the ebb and flow)
A dirty thought a pointless fck
I never properly explained
(Process of letting go)
This bodied beauty you contain
(The pattern on this
Strange bright-lighted stage)
Is too much for a man to take
(The stigma at this age less feeling age)
At such an age less feeling age
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
What's wrong with that? Nothing, I guess
Oh, nothing, I guess nothing, I guess
Your world for today
My head has opened up and
Your pictures fall like rain
In front of my face they spin
We were corresponding shapes like the
Rocks in a ledge
Now this puzzle has been rained upon
And the corners lost their edge
Nothing fit's as it once did
But at least we had finished at
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
And what's wrong with that? Nothing, I guess
So I entertain my mind with
Little ticks and movie flicks
Combinations of quirky comedies
But they've all got romantic twists
And when I can't forget, I write
That's how this whole thing came to be
It helps me when I'm lonely, yeah
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
All over this room I reign, you are
And what's wrong with that? Nothing, I guess
