Testo Carnival - Natalie Merchant
Testo della canzone Carnival (Natalie Merchant), tratta dall'album Tigerlily
Well, I've walked these streets
A virtual stage, it seemed to me
Makeup on their faces
Actors took their places next to me
Well, I've walked these streets
In a carnival of sights to see
All the cheap thrill seekers
The vendors and the dealers, they crowded around me
Have I been blind, have I been lost inside
Myself and my own mind?
Hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen?
Well, I've walked these streets
In a spectacle of wealth and poverty
In the diamond market the scarlet welcome carpet
That they just rolled out for me
And I've walked these streets
In the madhouse asylum they can be
Where a wild eyed misfit prophet on a traffic island stopped
And he raved of saving me
Have I been blind, have I been lost inside
Myself and my own mind?
Hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen?
Have I been wrong, have I been wise
To shut my eyes and play along
Hypnotized, paralyzed
By what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have seen
What they have seen
Have I been blind? (Blind)
Have I been lost? (Lost)
Have I been wrong? (Have I been wrong?)
Have I been wise? (Have I been wise?)
Have I been strong?
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have found?
(By what my eyes have found?)
In that great street carnival
Have I been blind? (Blind)
Have I been lost? (Lost)
Have I been wrong? (Have I been wrong?)
Have I been wise? (Have I been wise?)
Have I been strong?
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have found?
(By what my eyes have found?)
In that great street carnival
In that carnival
(It's crazy, yeah)
(Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized)
(By what my eyes have found?)
(By what my eyes have found)
(In that great street carnival)
