Carnival
Lyricist:Natalie Merchant
I've walked these streets A virtual stage It seemed to me Make up on their faces Actors took their places next to me
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 my self and my own mind Hypnotized, mesmerized By what my eyes have seen?
I've walked these streets In a spectacle of wealth and poverty In the diamond markets The scarlet welcome carpet That they just rolled out for me
And I've walked these streets Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com In the mad house 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 my self 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 and paralyzed by what my eyes have found By what my eyes have seen, by what they have seen?
Have I been blind? Have I been lost? Oh have I been lost? Have I been wise? Have I been weak? Have I been strong? Oh have I been strong?
Hypnotized and mesmerized By what my eyes have found By what my eyes have found In that, that great street carnival
[Incomprehensible]have I been blind? Have I been lost? Oh have I been lost? Have I been wise? Have I been weak? Have I been strong? Oh have I been strong?
If I've been hypnotized and mesmerized By what my eyes have found By what my eyes have found In that, that great street carnival, in that carnival
