Karnival
Navigating the Carnival of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
On a cold autumn eve
Reflecting on a chilly autumn evening
Where the sunset colors the leaves
Observing the sunset's impact on the leaves
As we're standing by the gate
Standing near a gate, contemplating
Wondering if it's just too late
Questioning if it's too late for something
The music flows through my mind
Feeling the influence of music on the mind
Did I leave something behind
Wondering if something important was left behind
I don't want to be led astray
Resisting being led astray, wanting clarity
Second guessing all the way
Doubting decisions, second-guessing
My head's been spinning like a carousel
Experiencing mental confusion akin to a carousel
(The waves keep pulling me in)
Feeling pulled by metaphorical waves
Please get me out of this wishing well
Desiring escape from a metaphorical wishing well
(Thoughts are crawling under my skin)
Intrusive thoughts unsettling like crawling under the skin
Don't know how I got into this
Uncertain about the circumstances that led to this
(But I need to find a way)
Expressing the need to find a solution
To leave this carnival
Expressing a desire to leave the carnival
I can't stay
Stating an inability to stay
Oh don't make me stay
Pleading not to be made to stay
I won't play
Declaring unwillingness to participate
All the people gather round
Observing people gathered, searching for what's known
Trying to find what's already found
Noting the redundancy in seeking what's already found
Fake scenarios in my brain
Mentions fabricated scenarios in the mind
A conductorless train
Describing a chaotic situation, like a conductorless train
My head's been spinning like a carousel
Reiterating the mental carousel spinning
(The waves keep pulling me in)
Repeating the sensation of being pulled by waves
Please get me out of this wishing well
Reiterating the desire to escape the wishing well
(Thoughts are crawling under my skin)
Reiterating the discomfort of thoughts under the skin
Don't know how I got into this
Reiterating the uncertainty of how the situation arose
(But I need to find a way)
Reiterating the need to find a solution
To leave this carnival
Repeating the desire to leave the carnival
I can't stay
Reiterating the inability to stay
Oh don't make me stay
Repeating the plea not to be made to stay
I won't play
Reiterating the refusal to participate
I won't play
Stating a firm decision not to engage in the situation
