The Carousel begins to slow I take my chances So far removed I fail to see; the recklessness I've shown in all my words and deeds, the good in other souls I never fail to see
Can you see the lights as far as the eyes can see, from this point about the world, where mortals dare their destiny As it radiates, may I witness open eyed Let me remain where there is light In want of courage - it is a shield for me In want of hope - it reassures and carries me As it radiates, may I witness open eyed Let me remain where there is light
Letting go was never easy Risking all for what I wanted and never needed Deliberated whether I should serve the cause of greater things, as we moved worlds apart
The greatest words would still fail me now These emotions I cannot describe I want to be where I don't need to hide myself and remain there till the end of time
The Gods play games with mortal hearts as the Carousel goes round As I looked on I saw the crowds that had gathered walk away
