Vertical Horizon Carrying On Lyrics

The waves on the shore can't be ignored.
Soon they're all around you.
The cavalry fail, they've all gone,
But you're holding on.
Somehow is 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 it 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.
