about

The Carnival Kids first single from their self-titled debut album, to be released in early 2013

lyrics

Come out the woods where the chemicals mix in the sun
I could tell you the truth but the truth is that I'm not the one
I don't believe in a certain pattern to things
All I could do is just wait for whatever it brings

So pass me your light
Cause wherever you go, there you are

Oh I don't belong
Oh I don't belong
I know I don't belong
Here in the bitter holding
You hold me out too long

Pour me a drink,
make it strong, go straight to my head
Forgive me if I'm forgetting the things that you said
Tell me a story with words as ripe as the day
The chemicals over and over I know what you'll say

You'll say pass me your light
Wherever you go, there you are

Oh I don't belong
(Wait a minute, wait just a minute)
Oh I don't belong
(Wait a minute, wait just a minute)
I know I don't belong
(Wait a minute, wait just a minute)
Here in the bitter holding
You hold me out too long
