Heart Tide - Carousel Lyrics

Keep your friends close
And your enemies in the trunk of your car
This is how the story goes
We just always take it too far
It's a vicious little cycle
Ruled by these kings and queens
Who have built an empire
Where no one else will ever win

I can't sleep
Instead, I give in to doubts
It's haunting
Blood is dripping out of my mouth
So slowly
Burn away my skin, I just
Keep hoping
My remedy is holy

Stuck inside this carousel
Which will never stop
We will never be parallel
Stuck inside this carousel
Which will never stop
We will never be parallel

If you want to join the cult
You need to behave
Words can make a deep cut
It's so hard to feel safe
And yet we're fascinated
With their machinations
We can't see the facade
I think it's the deprivation

I can't sleep
Instead I give in to doubts
It's haunting
Blood is dripping out of my mouth
So slowly
Burn away my skin, I just
Keep hoping
My remedy is holy

Stuck inside this carousel
Which will never stop
We will never be parallel
Stuck inside this carousel
Which will never stop
We will never be parallel

Death can come by this morning
You will never get out
Death can come by this morning
You will never get

You will never get out
This labyrinth of agony
Swallows all of its victims
You will never get out
This maze of existence
Is a treacherous kingdom

Stuck inside this carousel
This carousel
We will never be parallel
Stuck inside this carousel
Which will never stop
We will never be parallel

Death can come by this morning
You will never get out
Death can come by this morning
You will never get out

I can't sleep
Instead I give in to doubts
It's haunting
Blood is dripping out of my mouth
So slowly
Burn away my skin, I just
Keep hoping
My remedy is holy
