[Intro: Analog synth drone, distant radio noise, slow tape echo guitar] Voices in the static Calling from the ceiling Spinning lights are breathing In the broken room [Verse] Painted eyes on every wall Watching while the shadows crawl Broken clocks that never speak Counting dreams we cannot keep Plastic flowers start to glow In the dark where no winds blow Someone whispers from the floor We've been here somewhere before [Instrumental texture: reversed guitar, low synth pulse, metallic echoes] [Chorus] Round and round the carousel Neon ghosts begin to swell Laughing in a fractured sky Where the silent colors cry Round and round, we fade away Night dissolves the shape of day Nothing here is what it seems We are living in the dreams [Verse] Paper faces drift downstream Through the corridors of steam Every door leads back again To the room without an end Candles flicker underwater Someone calls but speaks in laughter Mirrors bend the passing time Turning whispers into rhyme [Sound collage: tape warp, filtered voices, distant choir pad] [Chorus] Round and round the carousel Neon ghosts begin to swell Laughing in a fractured sky Where the silent colors cry Round and round, we fade away Night dissolves the shape of day Nothing here is what it seems We are living in the dreams [Bridge: slow ambient breakdown, spoken voice, detuned synth] The walls remember Every word we never said Every step repeats itself Inside the spiral of the head Numbers melting Colors breathing Doors appear without a sound If you listen very closely You can hear the world unwind [Chorus] Round and round the carousel Neon ghosts begin to swell Laughing in a fractured sky Where the silent colors cry Round and round, we fade away Night dissolves the shape of day Nothing here is what it seems We are living in the dreams (in the dreams) [Outro: fading drone, echo guitar, vinyl noise, distant laughter] Round and round… Round and round… (never ending, never ending) [end]
