{verse 1}
Swallowin' self-imposed, compensated pieces of what i know
Breathin', lettin' go
One day at a time is still too slow
{pre-chorus}
I have not lived like this
Gonna shape another one. will i miss?
I have not felt like this
Every day gets longer now
What if i should miss?
It comes around
Beats me again
It comes around
{chorus}
So when i can't go on, would you carry me?
If i ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If i never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'cause even when i'm strong, i'm still on my knees
{verse 2}
Crawlin', no more floor
Though she's jaded mе, i still need more
Rotten from the corе
Impatiently waitin' what's in store
{pre-chorus}
I have not lived like this
Gonna shape another one. will i miss?
I have not felt like this
Every day gets longer now
What if i should miss?
It comes around
Beats me again
It comes around
{chorus}
So when i can't go on, would you carry me?
If i ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If i never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'cause even when i'm strong, i'm still on my knees
{bridge}
Stare at me - eye to eye
Comfort me - as i cry
Bury me - when i die
Carry me
{chorus}
So when i can't go on, would you carry me?
If i ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If i never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'cause even when i'm strong, i'm still on my knees
