Better Luck Next Time (Carousel)

On BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME

Thumbnail

[Chorus]

Maybe if I had another chance

Maybe if I looked you in the eye

Maybe if I had another try

I’d have better luck next time

Maybe if I knew the way you felt

Maybe if I trusted in myself

And now all that I carry is my guilt

Because the heart that I pour has just spilt


[Verse]

If I could ask you a question

Hey, could you just give me some attention

Faced with this broken hearted apprehension

I can’t stand this aggression

This is not good progression

Potent poison post possession

Caught, conviction causing tension

Boasting bout who I’ll not mention

Not to name names, but their to blame

Around the carousel I’m on a ball and chain

The carousel that I wish would go up in flames

Pass me the match I’ll light the fire without shame

But still the bloodstains from the beating will remain

All I do sit and pretend I’m still sane


[Outro]

Um, no

Lalalala
