CARRY ON

 

Lo, behold

Your crown of gold

Is it heavier than you were told

Rise and shine

You take yours, I'll take mine

As I'm forced to hold the hand you would fold

 

How long do we have to play along

I think we're running out of time to change the song

How long can we afford to get it wrong

I need something more to carry on

 

Chase the goal

Your early parole

Earning back all the life that they stole

Empty pockets

Chain you hands and line their pockets

The lonely bubble that you struggle to control

 

How long do we have to play along

I think we're running out of time to change the song

How long can we afford to get it wrong

I need something more to carry on

 

For a moment

For a moment I felt that I could finally breathe

For a moment

For a moment I felt that I was finally free

 

How long do we have to play along

I think we're running out of time to change the song

How long can we afford to get it wrong

I need something more to carry on
