Carry On Songtext
von Passion Pit

Well I woke up to the sound of silence
The cars were cutting like knives in a fist fight
And I found you with a bottle of wine
Your head in the curtains and hot like the Fourth of July
You swore and said we are not
We′re not shining stars
This I know
I never said we are

Though I've never been through hell like that
We′re closing left windows
No you can never look back

If you're lost and alone
And you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on
Carry on, carry on


So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
A bottle of 75
And we talked and talked about how our parents were bad
And all our neighbors and wives

But I like to think I can cheat it all
To make up for the times I′ve been cheated on
And it′s nice to think when I was left for dead
I was found out of Harvey Street
So knock the ghost out of me

If you're lost and alone
And you′re sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Oh my head is on fire
But my legs are fine
After all they are mine

Lay your clothes down on the floor
Close the door, hold the phone
Show me how no one's ever gonna stop me now


(Carry on, carry on)
Stop me now
(Carry on, carry on)
′Cause we are one
We are shining stars
We're invincible
We are who we are

On our darkest day
When we′re miles away
Then the sun will come
And we'll find our way home

If you're lost and alone
And you′re sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on
