Lyrics[]
Bold= Nico
I don’t wanna hear it cuz you've said it all before
Your boyfriend is a loser and he fucked another whore
I put you back together even though you never want me
You only want one thing
You only want one thing
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
When you hit a low I’m the first one that you call
Need all my attention ‘steada talking to the wall
Try to justify it even though it’s not your fault
No you don’t want my opinion
Just someone to listen
Oh, come take my hand
And run through playland
So high, too high
At the carnival
Burn through every fire girl you got me going blind
While you keep moving backwards every time
But you already bought a ticket
And there's no turning back now
I don’t wanna hear it cuz you've said it all before
Your boyfriend is a loser and he fucked another whore
I put you back together even though you never want me
You only want one thing
You only want one thing
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
You wear me down to the core
When it’s 3 am and you come banging on my door
Tell me why you’re really here and what you need me for
You’re the main attraction
And I’m just a distraction
Right, right when I'm near
It's like you disappear
Where'd you go?
Mr. Houdini, you're a freak show
I could play the victim but then how would you survive?
So I watch you go backwards every time
But you already bought a ticket
And there's no turning back now
I don’t wanna hear it cuz you've said it all before
Your boyfriend is a loser and he fucked another whore
I put you back together even though you never want me
You only want one thing
You only want one thing
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
Can’t win a game that you won’t even play
You borrow my heart then you throw it away
I’m just somebody that you can replace
Cuz you only want one thing
You only want one thing
And now I'm stuck, I'm stuck
Riding, riding, riding
I don’t wanna hear it cuz you've said it all before
Your boyfriend is a loser and he fucked another whore
I put you back together even though you never want me
You only want one thing
You only want one thing
I know chasing after you is like a fairytale
But I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel
