let this love
carry on
carry on
when we turn to dust
let these words last forever
make this life
about something bigger than all of us
all of us
let this love
let this love carry on
i will not
hold the shame
of my mistakes
like a newborn child
pressed against my chest
they will not hold me down
tighter than the straps
waiting for a needle to put my heart to rest
i am who i am
because of the things i've done
the things i've done
i'm not proud of them all
but i'm ashamed of none
i've lived for love in hopes
that it never dies
i've lived for love in hopes that it never dies
i've lived for love
love
i'd rather have my words remembered
and not my name
i'd rather have this message remembered
and not my face
let this love carry on
let this love carry on
carry on
when we turn to dust
let these words last forever
make this life
about something bigger than all of us
all of us
we are who we are
because of the choices we make (x2)
would you destroy this life
remember your name (x2)
i will have this love
carry on
until the end of my days
i will have this message remember
before my face
let this love
carry on
carry on (x4)
when we turn to dust
let these words last forever
make this life
about something bigger than all of us
all of us
