Carry On

(album: Everything's Fine - 2023)

So you think matter fact I'm leaving
Stick my shoes on, gone, pack this evening
Gonna wave off my right to feeling
Gonna slink off in the night

You think when I wake tomorrow
Gonna sit up and not feel my sorrow
Gonna maintain what I got for trouble
Gonna stay here and sift through the rubble

I won't let you go
Oh, I will make you see
That I care more for you than
I care for me (I care for me)
If you could understand
Oh, we would make it easy
But everything we take, it
Never comes cheap (Never comes cheap)

We carry on every time
We carry on
We carry on every time
We carry on
We carry on every time
We carry on
We carry on every time

No words wasted when it sours
We need not recall the hours
If I could beg, steal or borrow a flower
It don't make it right

You'd hope when I lay my head down
The sun would set as we're breaking new ground
The way we brush it off is truly profound
Look how we fade into the background

I won't let you go
Oh, I will make you see
That I care more for you than
I care for me (I care for me)
If you could understand
Oh, we would make it easy
But everything we take, it
Never comes cheap (Never comes cheap)

I won't let you go
Oh, I will make you see
That I care more for you than
I care for me (I care for me)
If you could understand
Oh, we would make it easy
But everything we take, it
Never comes cheap (Never comes cheap)
