Duane Dolieslager - Carousel Lyrics

Her wake is pulling me in
As the light grows tragically dim
And my words like air wearing thin

‘cause I don’t have what you’re needing
My heart is barely beating now

In circles evading my breath
I’m unwound in usual text
As the opposite of optimist

When my words all slip right through you
When I wish they’d sink into you
And never let you go
No never let you go

To ask what purpose is for
As my foot slips out of the door
Well at least it’s been there before

‘cause I don’t know what you’re needing
I’m live but barely breathing

Instead of climbed I fell
Off your carousel
So good-bye good luck oh well
I’m off your carousel
