Carrusel de Adultos
José Madero
Adult Carousel
In Greek it's almost literal
It means the pain of an old wound
A stab almost as fatal
More powerful than what memory can recall
Forward and backward
It transports you to that place
The one that hurts so much, so much
The one you fear to return to
An unknown place, a place so familiar
It's not a spaceship
It's a time machine in the present and reality
It's not vertical, it's not linear
Imagine the carousel you saw at that carnival
Like a child without age
It travels in a circular form
Round and round like karma
Back to your home
Where you felt loved, the place that was yours
My literal nostalgia
A stab almost as fatal
It's a time machine
Like McFly's
It's something disappeared that you always know where it is
