Lyrics

Older

Over and over
A carousel ride
Pay for your ticket
Watch the red moon climb

Sick to my stomach
Can't find the ground
Stuck in a loop
Watch the curtain come down

Thought it'd be over by now
Thought you would leave
Thought I would come to my senses
Wish I was stronger somehow
Wish it was easy
Somewhere I lost all my senses
I wish I knew what the end is

Over and over
Watch it all pass
Mom's getting older
I'm wanting it back

Where no one is dying
And no one is hurt
And I have been good to you
Instead of making it worse

Thought it'd be over by now
Thought you would leave
Thought I would come to my senses
Wish I was stronger somehow
Wish it was easy
Somewhere I lost all my senses
I wish I knew what the end is

I wish I knew what the end is
