Carry On Songtext
von Adam Gubman

When the ocean waves
Crash around your knees
And you feel yourself
Drifting in
Carry on,
Carry on,

When the sunlight thrashes
About your face
And in sheets your skin burns within,
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on


When you know your clock
Has a slowing hand
And the numbers fade with the wind,
When your chance to fail
Bests your chance to win
Sinking ships, empty hands, fallen friends,
Carry on,
Carry on,
Carry on.

When the starlight shines
Brighter than the day
And the darkness cradles your sins,
Carry on
Carry on

When the left behind are but
Ghosts and bones
Bells in churches, quiet and dim,
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on


When you know your book has an open end
And no light to guide you by hand
When your passions pardon the wrong you feel
Wrought with fears
Torn in half
Just a boy with no raft
And an ocean ahead
In the dark, full of dread
And the sharks, and the waves
Carry off men in parts
Partly on, partly off
Partly feeling half lost
Like the walls last for days
Never doors, windows black
You don′t fall on your back
Gather shields, gather swords,
And move forwards, the world's yours
The world′s yours
Carry on
The world's yours...

When there's one choice left
Do you sink, do you swim
Keep your focus, never give in
Carry on
Sing this song
Carry on
