The carousel begins to slow
|
I'll take my chances
|
So far removed I'll 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 light
|
As far as the eyes can see
|
From this point above 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 as 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
|
Never needed
|
Deliberated whether I should
|
Serve the cause of greater things
|
As we moved worlds apart
|
|
Can you see the light
|
As far as the eyes can see
|
From this point above the world
|
Where mortals dare their destiny
|
As it radiates
|
May I witness open-eyed
|
Let me remain where there is light
|
|
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
|
Until the end of time
|
|
The gods play games
|
With mortal hearts
|
As the carousel goes round
|
As I looked on
|
I saw the crowds who gathered
|
Walk away
|
|
Can you see the light
|
As far as the eyes can see
|
From this point above 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 as 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
|
