Well, I woke up to the sound of silence, the 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 Fourth of July
You swore and said we are not
We are not shining stars
This I know, 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
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your path be the sound of your feet upon the ground
Carry on
Carry on, carry on

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
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 now I don't roam these streets
I was never the ghost you want of me
If you're lost and alone or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your path be the sound of your feet upon the ground
Carry on
Whoa, my head is on fire
But my legs are fine
After all, they are mine
Lay your clothes down on the floor
Close the door, hold the phones
Show me how no one's ever gonna stop us now
♪
'Cause we are, we are shining stars
We are invincible, we are who we are
On our darkest day when we're miles away
So we'll come, we will find our way home oh
If you're lost and alone or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your path be the sound of your feet upon the ground
Carry on
Oh-oh-whoa, oh-oh-oh-whoa
Oh, oh, oh-whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Oh-oh-whoa, oh-oh-oh-whoa
Oh, oh, oh-whoa-oh, whoa-oh
No one's ever gonna stop us now
