WELL I WOKE UP TO
THE SOUND OF SILENCE
AND CRIES 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 PAST
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 NEIGHBOURS
AND WIVES
BUT I 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 AM NOT THE GHOST
YOU ARE TO ME
IF YOU'RE LOST AND ALONE
OR YOU'RE SINKING
LIKE A STONE
CARRY ON
MAY YOUR PAST
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 PHONE
SHOW ME HOW NO ONE'S
EVER GONNA STOP US TONIGHT
'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
IF YOU'RE LOST
AND ALONE
OR YOU'RE SINKING
LIKE A STONE
CARRY ON
MAY YOUR PAST
BE THE SOUND
OF YOUR FEET
UPON THE GROUND
CARRY ON
OH OH OH
OH OH OH OH OH
OH OH OH
OH OH OH OH OH
OH OH
NO ONE'S EVER GONNA
STOP US TONIGHT
