Carrying On

The waves on the shore

Can't be ignored

Soon they're all around you

The cavalry's failed

They've all gone

But you're holding on

Somehow

It's not what you asked for



[Chorus:]

Why

Do you cry in the morning

When the light is just forming

I know you think

I'm just carrying on

But I've been where you're going

And it's not worth knowing

Burning the days and just carrying on

You search for a way

To harvest the pain

'Cause fallout is contagious

And you're in your head

No control

Of what you let go

Sometimes

It's not what you dreamed of



[Chorus]

And after all that you've forgotten

You still don't understand

You think the world broke its promise

But it just slipped right though your hands



[Chorus]

No more carrying on

The waves on the shore

Can't be ignored

Soon their all around you
