Carry On

Carry on
Even with the essence gone
Every little string that held you up broken all at once
On a cloudless day
You might not even sense the weight from this full yet empty case
On a cloudy day you might just want to sneer at me
Cause all I will repeat is

Carry on
Even now your days are so long
And every time you force your mind to obey it's firmly locking up
On this cloudless day
No sun or lighthearted song can lift the weight away
The next rainy day you might pause to scowl at me
While waiting for my plea urging you to

Carry on
Even if they sense what's wrong
Even if it means you have to show that you are touchable

Gradually you wear down soundlessly
How come we create this masquerade?

I woke up one day with every little nerve and breath take
Begging for a break
It took a few rainy days for me to understand
That it might depend on endurance

So carry on
You might not get it all at once
You might not even do it to perfection but there'll be a day tomorrow
