Carnival

Spin, spin, twirling

On a teacup ride

All alone

No emotion shown

I only know vacancy

On this teacup ride

I hear chuckles and laughter

But on the morning after

The sound of a stranger’s happiness

Will still pierce my ears

Drowned in jealousy

Knowing what I’m supposed to be

Knowing what they all can feel

But I can’t, though I try

So in this teacup, I hide

On this carnival ride
