Merry Go Round
Smash Into Pieces Lyrics

There's a side of you I love
I appreciate certain aspects of your personality

There's a side that I'm sick of
However, there are certain traits of yours that I find annoying

No one gets me high like you
Nevertheless, you still have the power to make me feel alive

No one breaks me down the way you do
But at the same time, you can also cause me great emotional pain

we've played this game so many times, used the same old lies, said our last goodbye
Despite having gone through this cycle countless times and used the same excuses, we have still decided to end things

Still I keep coming back for more, I just want you for one last time
However, I cannot seem to resist the temptation of being with you one last time

You hate me when I break up
You get angry with me when I try to end things between us

You save me when I fuck up
But you are always there to help me out when I inevitably mess up

You love me when I'm back again
And you still have feelings for me when I decide to reconcile with you

I'm addicted to
I have become dependent on you and our relationship

That is how we ride
This is how our relationship functions

on the merry-go-round
We continually go through the same cycle

I can't tell the wrong from right
I am so caught up in my feelings for you that I cannot differentiate between what is good or bad for me

and I don't know why when we fight
I am unsure why our arguments always happen

I'm too lost in you to see
But I am so deeply invested in you that I cannot see past our relationship

That the thing we have is not meant to be
Despite my feelings, I know deep down we are not good for each other

We are waiting for the weekend rush, when life doesn't suck, when there's a chance
We look forward to times when life feels good and hopeful

we'll fu'
And we plan to indulge in our desires

I realise this won't work no more, I just want you for one last time
Finally, I recognize that our relationship cannot continue, but I still desire to be with you once more

I hate that I love what I hate
I am frustrated with myself because I feel drawn to something that I know is not good for me

and I can't escape
And I cannot seem to break free from this vicious cycle

I can't find no cure
Despite my attempts, I cannot seem to find a way to end my addiction to you

I'm thinking that
I am left with thoughts of

I'm addicted to you
My dependence upon you is strong and all-consuming

That is how we ride
And our relationship continues as a never-ending cycle

on the merry-go-round
We continually repeat the same patterns

round and round
Going in circles

That is how we ride
Our addiction to each other fuels this cycle

on the merry-go-round
And we continue to repeat the same mistakes, never moving forward

on the merry-go-round
And we remain stuck in this never-ending cycle of love and pain
