We Carry On

We Carry On
By Troubaduo

Miriam, tell me you're alright
You've been sitting at the bar the entire night
I know it's been another long day
But you can only drink away your pain for a moment
Until it comes back to claim you again
But you try to walk on
In a world that you don't understand
Whenever you fall, just look above
I'll be there to take your hand

Somehow, when we get together it's alright
We look past the memories of the hard times
And into the present, where we carry on

You work hard but you can't even pay your bills
And everyone just wants to watch you fail
Searching for symbolical signs
Praying for a change in your state of mind
While hope is deferred
And to the righteous way you go blind
You try to walk on
In a world that you can't understand
But whenever you fall as low as you can go
I'll be there to pick you up again

Somehow, when we get together it's alright
We look past the memories of the hard times
And into the present, where we carry on

Always, you will get older
And these trials will make you stronger
Able to stand with the rise and fall of tides
But you will never be able to accomplish all on your table
As long as you walk with no one by your side
Open up your eyes and see
I'll be there for you in your time of need

Somehow, when we get together it's alright
We look past the memories of the hard times
And into the present, where we carry on
