Carousel - Melanie Martinez Lyrics

[francescadonzelli]

This song describes the situation in wich someone shows interest in you, flirts with you, plays. At the beginning you go along with it, "it's all fun and games" until you start catching feeling and in that precise moment the other person disappear. But now it's too late for you, you're on that fucking carousel, you've taken that ride and you can't stop looking for him, but any time you seem to get closer, he just goes further.

“and it’s all fun and games, ‘til somebody falls in love, but you’ve already bought a ticket, and there’s no turning back now” omg i love that part 🥰

[karlavanelys]

2:14 it’s actually “where’d you go? mr. houdini, you’re a freakshow!”

[riasanzz]

This hits different when you’re listening to it with headphones

[chrysthianekyledungog]

A quiet place: cant speak
Hush: cant hear
Bird Box: cant see
Melanie Martinez: cant make a bad song

[Mega-otbo]

the nostalgia i get from this is unbearable

[ulyanalapchuk]

No one:



Me anytime I go on a carousel: *rOuNd aNd rOuNd LiKe a HoRsE oN a cArOuSeL, wE gO WiLL i cAtCH uP tO lOve I cOuLd nEvEr TeLl*

[solseclipse]

"And it's all fun and games, 'till somebody falls in love"
I LOVE THIS LINE

[thesquad]

"Chasing after you Is Like a fairytale" I love that line

[maggiegoldrovens]

I love the part “Will I catch up to love, I can never tell..” You know when you are on a carousel you go on circles, not straight. And by going on circles, you can not catch the person that is in front of you
This song describes love perfectly, chasing after someone is actually like a fairytale but the uncertainity makes you feel like you are “stuck”

[Pilaf-Sama]

I was so happy when I found out this song was in American horror story I love Melanie and American horror story.

Person: "whats your favorite song from melanie martinez?"


Me: "yes"

[steph]

A mashup of this song and nurses office I feel would sound so good!

[moth]

This song hits different when you're listening alone at night-
*oof*-

[tyler]

This really touched my heart cause u can tell that she put so much effort into it and that's why it's still popping off and still got people talking to this day

[RS-bnty]

I listened to this song after nothing has helped me heal and forget a situation and I really paid attention to the lyrics and realized I did not want to ride that ride again. At the end of the video it is hinted Melanie is going to start to ride again. I’m happy to say this song has put me on the right path to let the past go and move forward from situations that no longer serve me

my melanie martinez obsession comes back every year

[Mika_Kagehira.]

I guess some people had to turn their screen upside down to like again.
