natalie merchant - carnival (paradise is there version) lyrics
[verse]
i’ve walked these streets
a virtual stage, it seemed to me
makeup on their faces
actors took their places next to me
[verse]
well i’ve walked these streets
in a carnival of sights to see
all the cheap thrill seekers
vendors and dealers
crowded around me
[chorus]
have i been blind?
have i been lost, inside
myself an’ my own mind?
hypnotized, mesmerized
by what my eyes have seen?
[verse]
i’ve walked these streets
in a spеctacle of wealth and poverty
in thе diamond market
the scarlet welcome carpet
they just rolled out for me
[verse]
i’ve walked these streets
in the madhouse asylum they can be
where a wild+eyed misfit prophet
on a traffic island stopped
and he raved of saving me
[chorus]
have i been blind?
have i been lost, inside
myself an’ my own mind?
hypnotized, mesmerized
by what my eyes have seen
[post+chorus]
have i been wrong?
have i been wise, to shut
my eyes and play along?
hypnotized, paralyzed
by what my eyes have found
by what my eyes have seen
ooh, what they have seen
[bridge]
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
what my eyes have found
in that, in that great street carnival
[bridge/outro]
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?
have i been hypnotized, mesmerized
by what my eyes have found
what my eyes have found
in that, in that great street carnival
in that carnival…?
