Carrying On Lyrics
Vertical Horizon
The waves on the shore, can't be ignored
Soon they're all around you
The cavalry's failed, they've all gone
But you're holding on
Somehow it's not what you asked for
Why do you cry in the morning
When the line is just forming
I know you think I'm just carrying on
When I've been where you're going
And it's not worth knowing
Burning the days I'm just carrying on
The search for the way, to harvest the pain
'Cause all of is contagious
Knowing your head, no control of what you let go
Sometimes, it's not what you dreamed of
Why do you cry in the morning
When the line is just forming
I know you think I'm just carrying on
When I've been where you're going
And it's not worth knowing
Burning the days I'm just carrying on
And after all that you've forgotten
You still don't understand
You think the world broke it's promise
But it just slipped right through your hands
Tell me why do you cry in the morning
When the line is just forming
I know you think I'm just carrying on
But I've been where you're going
And it's not worth knowing
Burning the days I'm just carrying on
Oh carrying on
The waves on the shore
Can't be ignored
Soon they're all around you
Soon they're all around you
The cavalry's failed, they've all gone
But you're holding on
Somehow it's not what you asked for
Why do you cry in the morning
When the line is just forming
I know you think I'm just carrying on
When I've been where you're going
And it's not worth knowing
Burning the days I'm just carrying on
The search for the way, to harvest the pain
'Cause all of is contagious
Knowing your head, no control of what you let go
Sometimes, it's not what you dreamed of
Why do you cry in the morning
When the line is just forming
I know you think I'm just carrying on
When I've been where you're going
And it's not worth knowing
Burning the days I'm just carrying on
And after all that you've forgotten
You still don't understand
You think the world broke it's promise
But it just slipped right through your hands
Tell me why do you cry in the morning
When the line is just forming
I know you think I'm just carrying on
But I've been where you're going
And it's not worth knowing
Burning the days I'm just carrying on
Oh carrying on
The waves on the shore
Can't be ignored
Soon they're all around you
