heyheyhey its me Jubi
The song is Carousel by Melanie Martinez.

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
Will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
Feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

   Ladybug. You were my fairytale. Always so close, yet so elusive. I loved you, and always hoped that you'd love me back. But like a fairytale, I knew that it probably would never happen.

Come, come one, come all,
You must be this tall
To ride this ride at the carnival

Oh, come, take my hand
And run through playland
So high, too high at the carnival

And it's all fun and games,
'Til somebody falls in love,
But you've already bought a ticket,
And there's no turning back now

   That first day we met, I didn't know what to think of you. You were so.. amazing. You were smart, and brave, and everything I would ever hope for in a girl. But we were partners. I fell for you, and I fell hard. But there was no turning back. You can't just revoke feelings.

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
Will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
Feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

   Still, I tried. I tried to be a good partner and a good friend. I didn't like being just a friend, but if you were happy being friends, then I couldn't help but agree. I didn't want to ruin our friendship.

This horse is too slow,
We're always this close,
Almost, almost, we're a freakshow

Right, right when I'm near,
It's like you disappear,
Where'd you go? Mr. Houdini, you're a freakshow.

   Every time I did try to say something though, we would run out of time. I'd always be so close, yet so far. And I couldn't do anything about it, because by the time I said anything, you would already be gone.

And it's all fun and games,
'Til somebody falls in love,
But you've already bought a ticket,
And there's no turning back now

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
Will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
Feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

   And here I am, still. Still no confession. But I'm pretty sure you know I like you anyways. Well, not like. Something stronger. Love. I love you, Ladybug.

Why did you steal my cotton candy heart?
You threw it in this damn coin slot,
And now I'm stuck, I'm stuck,
Riding, riding, riding

Round and round like a horse on a carousel, we go,
Will I catch up to love? I could never tell, I know,
Chasing after you is like a fairytale, but I,
Feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel

   Ladybug, I love you. I know you'll never return my feelings, but I'll still hope. Because that's all I can do. You stole my heart, and I don't think I'll ever be able to get it back, because Ladybug, you're my fairytale.

   I'm just not sure if our fairytale's ending will be happy. At least, from my end.
