lyrics

I spun around on your carousel
Put you on a pedestal
You had me on a string
Made me dance and sing
Gave you everything

But you never knew what it did to me
Years of catastrophe
I kept holding on to a hopeless dream
Seems like eternity

I watched you pick me apart
Friend to friend, heart to heart
When my number was called
You brought me back, back to the start
And I can't change the past
Cause the heartache still lasts
It's time to go home, it's time to let you go

You closed my lid tight like a firefly
Only to hide my light
For you I hurt a girl
Cause you were my world
Oh how the tides had turned

You saw a wound and made it deeper still
It must have been a thrill
While you had me calm
Twice you would move along
But you could do no wrong

I watched you pick me apart
Friend to friend, heart to heart
When my number was called
You brought me back, back to the start
And I can't change the past
Cause the heartache still lasts
It's time to go home, it's time to let you go

Horses side by side
You kept me close behind
Stuck on this merry go round
That only took me down

I watched you pick me apart
Friend to friend, heart to heart
When my number was called
You brought me back, back to the start
And I can't change the past
Cause the heartache still lasts
It's time to go home, it's time to let you go
