Lyrics for Carousel as interpreted by ScreamingInfidelity

Carousel Lyrics
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
I stop to think at a wishing well
My thoughts send me on a carousel
Here I am standing on my own
Not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
Solitudes a reason to die

Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone

Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
Buying food every once in a while
But not enough to purchase a smile

A tank of gas is a treasure to me
I know now that nothing is free
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again

Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone

I love Blink 182 so much! I mean they are totally awesome and the rule! They are one of the koolest bands around. I love this song. This song is one of my all time favorite Blink songs there is! This song totally rocks in concert! I saw them in cocnert 5 times! I feel so lucky. LOL. Oh well. Blik just is a totally awesome band and they really know how to put on a rocking concert! Tom is sexy and not every1 wants to admit it but I will. LOL! I got all their CDs but the sad thing is I thinks it's time for them to come out with a new one. Don't we all? Well this song totally kicks ass and I love it to death along with the Blink boyz! HeHe! Till then . . . .

this is a great blink song....one of my favorites. i do think that their older stuff was better, but they're still good and i dont think they're sell outs. i saw them in concert with green day and saves the day last month...it was so awesome. my 3 favorite bands.....i loved it. this whole thing about arguing if blink is punk or sell-outs or whatever is really annoying.

Blink 182 rocks, and have been since 95, when i first picked up chesire cat. this has got to be one of my top 3 favorite blink songs. chesire cat is my fav album, but who says its any better than the newer ones. the newer ones just need more time to get used to. anyway, once a blink fan, always a blink fan!

if you know bass and have been at it for a few weeks, then the intro is pretty simple.

wow, i love this song, its prolly my favorite, this albums better than the rest in my opinion, i think blink should re-record it, cuz its amazing, but it was crappily recorded and mastered, humph, o well, its funny how u people call people posers, true, alot on here are, but i think labeling urself anything is poser like, so yeah, i listen to alotta crap, from hardcore to like pop-punk, indie rock, punk, its great

This song musically is one their best ever, the bass intro rocks, the guitar riffs are sweet, and the drums kick ass, I love this song, although I like the Buddah version best.

Ok - i like blink.....i liked blink back in the day, and i like them now.... i find it very odd that everyone gets crazy w/ them abotu "selling out" ... it doesnt matter to me if they did or not, they make good music. There are very few blink songs i dont like. (p.s. Tom is my lover)

it would be kinda hard to still right songs about being lonely and sad and stuff when they're like famous and rich and stuff with families. not saying they suck coz of it, i mean hardly anyone (if any) wouldn't want that and a lot of pple just started liking their music

their newer stuff is a lotta bit not as good. fame ruined blink. plain and simple. they didnt sell out w/ fame, because i think thats a gay excuse. i think they sold out with their change. they completely changed their image. they gave into pop. blink will never be the same. Enema-TOYPAJ sucks

This is the best song by Blink that isn't on dude ranch. For all that everyone says that Blink sucks nowadays and they sold out, that doesn't change the fact that Dude Ranch is maybe the best punk album ever. I'll never turn by back on these guys. No matter what they sound like. They got me into punk.

OK-- it's about april-may 1995, the end of my freshman year out in the OC. I've been getting into skating lately and getting good at kickflips and lipslides. My buddy Andy who always seemed to find the best new punk stuff has been getting me into some cool new music. I was always into rock, mosty classic rock from the 'rents, so this stuff was the perfect transition into my own identity. Anyway, Andy's got a car, and we're gonna go skate a school out at the edge of civilization (at the time anyway), but first he says "come over and check out this rad shit". so he puts on some Unwritten Law, and some other shit i cant remember, and then he puts on Cheshire Cat, and that was it for me. I couldnt believe what i was hearing, and the joke songs were so original. These days i cant skate anymore, nearly broke my ankle the last time i tried, and i'm not very punk anymore (i sell freaking toyotas these days, for christ's sake), but that music is all about the best days of my life-- hitting the ledges where they were good, hitting the waves from san clemente to huntington, and just having fun with the best friends i mostly cant even find anymore. That's this song, this whole album, and pretty much blink and punk to me. So hit the shows and support your fav bands, "sellouts" or not.

Carousel kicks ass. It's about life at a confusing and complex time in a person's life. Nothing makes sense, and even when you have what you need you still feel like something's missing.

I went to a Blink182 concert about four years back and they played this as their last song of the night. The funniest part was that only maybe 1/4 of the crowd had ever heard the song! It wasn't til this song that the old school fans came out. A band saves their best song for last right? So if Carousel is Blink182's best song, why don't they write more GOOD songs like this?!
