Lyrics Carousel - Allister

Carousel

Pony up the price of admission
Reminisce in thoughts of a better time
Hold your breath and hope for the best
The lights go down, but it’s only beginning
Just keep your head up
This world goes by in a flash
And where it stops is anyone’s guess
The same old sights and fading lights
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
Eyes closed, and try to hold on
But in no time you’re back at the start
The same old songs and sing-alongs
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
Lured into a false sense of safety
One loose screw and all this comes crashing down
Take a breath and hope for the best
The lights go down, but it’s only beginning
Just keep your head up
This world goes by in a flash
And where it stops is anyone’s guess
The same old sights and fading lights
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
Eyes closed, and try to hold on
But in no time you’re back at the start
The same old songs and sing-alongs
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
And for the moment it all seems ok
But in the end it could all fade away
Still drunk on memories you’ve buried inside
Just hold on tight and enjoy the ride
Move on but going nowhere
With thoughts of how you ended up here
It looks the same but things have changed
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
This world goes by in a flash
And where it stops is anyone’s guess
The same old sights and fading lights
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
Eyes closed, and try to hold on
But in no time you’re back at the start
The same old songs and sing-alongs
Around and 'round stuck on a carousel
