We Carry On

Miriam tell me you're all right
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

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 you're hand

Somehow when we get together it's all right
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
Whenever you fall as low as you as you can go
I'll be there to pick you up again

Always, you will get older
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 in your time of need
