If you could see my friends 

I had when I was dead 

Maybe one of them said 

To carry on? 

Now I'm standing there 

The smoke rolls high in the air 

And I just blindly stare 

At carry on 



But I can't stand it, runnin’ away 

And I can't love you 

When I stay 



Through every foggy morn 

With heartache, strife and scorn 

I just can't conform 

With carry on 

And every worthless night 

When I can see no light 

I put up a fight 

With carry on 



But I can't stand it, runnin’ away 

And I can't love you 

When I stay 



Sure, I've been ton down 

Hell, I been pushed around 

And stumble through this town 

Of carry on 

Come one sunny day 

I'll put that bottle away 

And bid goodbye to the fray 

And carry on 



But I can't stand it, runnin’ away 

And I can't love you 

When I stay
