Intro

Verse 1

 Well I woke up to the sound of silence and guns

 were cutting like knives in a fist fight

 And I found you with a bottle of wine

 your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July

 You swore and said we are not

 we are not shining stars

 This i know

 cause i never said we are

 Though I've never been through hell like that

 I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back

Chorus

 If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone

 Carry on

 May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground

 Carry on

 Carry on carry on

Verse 2

 So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night

 at a bar off 75

 And we talked and talked about how our parents will die

 All our neighbors and wives

[PRE CHORUS]

 But i'd like to think

 I can cheat it all

 to make up for the times i've been cheated on

 And it's nice to know

 when i was left for dead

 I was found and I know not these streets

 I am not the ghost you want to be

Chorus

 If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone

 Carry on

 May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground

 Carry on

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

Bridge

 My head is on fire, but my legs they're fine

 Cause after all, they are mine

 Lay your clothes down on the floor, close the door, hold the phone

 show me how, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight

[PRE CHORUS]

 Cause we are, we are shining stars

 We are invincible, we are who we are

 On our darkest day, when we're miles away

 Sun will come, we will find our way home

Chorus

 If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone

 Carry on

 May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground

 Carry on

Outro

 Carry on carry on

 Carry on carry on
