awerysopelea - Carry On

Songtext

[Intro] There’s a signal in the silence and it sounds a little like me. [Verse 1] I woke up with a siren sleeping underneath my tongue, every screen was speaking softly, saying what I should become. There were headlines in the hallway, little wars behind my eyes, but a rhythm kept on knocking where they couldn’t reach inside. [Pre-Chorus] Let it rise, let it roll, past the noise they can’t control. Fecha os olhos, ouve o som, bate forte, coração— [Chorus] Carry on, carry on, one pulse under every tongue. Ich trag die Welt tief in mein Herz— and it hurts, and it hurts. No apagues la luz— I refuse to lose. Wir verlieren viel zu viel Zeit— not tonight, not tonight. Carry on. [Verse 2] Every room divides in color, every color needs a side. Every side is fed a story, every story learns to bite. We keep moving with the pattern till the pattern feels like truth, but the body knows the difference when the signal passes through. [Pre-Chorus] Cut the feed, dim the glow, there’s a current down below. Fecha os olhos, ouve o som, bate forte, coração— [Chorus] Carry on, carry on, one pulse under every tongue. Ich trag die Welt tief in mein Herz— and it hurts, and it hurts. No apagues la luz— I refuse to lose. Wir verlieren viel zu viel Zeit— not tonight, not tonight. Carry on. [Post-Chorus] Coração— carry on. Coração— carry on. [Instrumental] [Bridge] They can borrow every word, they can bend what we have heard, but they cannot own the beat that begins before we speak. If the fear was taught to us, we can tear it from the root. When the borrowed voices stop, you can hear the body choose. [Pre-Chorus] Let it rise, let it roll, past the noise they can’t control. Fecha os olhos— ouve o som— Bate forte— coração— [Final Chorus] Carry on, carry on, one pulse under every tongue. Ich trag die Welt tief in mein Herz— and it hurts, and it hurts. No apagues la luz— I refuse to lose. Wir verlieren viel zu viel Zeit— not tonight, not tonight. Carry on, carry on, even when the signal’s gone. Every voice they tried to drown is a wave returning now. Coração— carry on. La luz— I refuse to lose. Mein Herz— and it hurts. Viel zu viel Zeit— not tonight. Carry on. [Outro] The signal fades. The pulse goes on.
