Carousel
Nick Lopez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You said I'm leavin'
Break up on a weekday
Make up on the weekend

It's hearbreak season
Are you even listenin'
We're caught in
Fire, passion, cryin', laughin'
Now we're crushing
How'd this happen
Time keeps passing
Far too fast for me

Pushin', pullin', kept it
Going touchin', holdin'
Heart got stolen
You're first to go
And I'm the last to leave

We're going roung again
Up and down again, oh oh
We're going roung again
You're fking with my head, oh oh oh

We broke down, alone now
All that time was wasted
I didn't wanna face it

We fall out, I fall down
Layin' there on the ground
I can't get up we're caught in

Fire, passion, cryin', laughin'
Now we're crushing
How'd this happen
Time keeps passing
Far too fast for me

Pushin', pullin', kept it
Going touchin', holdin'
Heart got stolen
You're first to go
And I'm the last to leave, yeah

We're going roung again
Up and down again, oh oh
We're going roung again
You're fking with my head, oh oh oh.②…

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nick Lopez's song Carousel describe a tumultuous relationship that seems to be caught in a cycle of breaking up and making up. The singer laments that they are caught in a cycle of fire, passion, crying, and laughter, and wonders how they got to this point. The relationship is compared to a carousel, which just goes round and round, up and down, without stopping.


The first stanza sets the scene for the song, with the singer saying their partner is leaving them on a weekday and then making up with them on the weekend, suggesting a cycle of breaking up and making up. The second stanza describes the aftermath of one of these breakups, with the singer feeling alone and unable to get up off the ground. The chorus repeats the idea that they are caught in a cycle and that their partner is messing with their head.

New artist on Proximity. I met Nick Lopez at a show in Los Angeles with his manager and was told that this guy is something special. Nick has written for Lady Gaga and a few others and started producing his own stuff. Really happy to be sharing this one with you all - he produced and sang over this one as well as creating this video to accompany everything. Future bass track with a twist that I hope you all enjoy. :)
