Lyrics
Alright, here we go with riff one
Did you ever get the feeling that there’s something come undoneAn unreeling in the seaming, the stitching goneSo you rip a little harder ’til that rip becomes a runFeel the fabric of existence come unspun
Hey there, we don’t careCould be standing way out whereYou’re naked and freezing ’til you runFreeze or run
But don’t stop feeling audacious, there’s no one to save usSo just carry onAnd don’t go blaming the neighbors, you know they’re the same as usWe should just get onGet on
With a plastic carrier bag in each hand, the rain fell low so you were standingUnder the holly tree with exasperated feelings andHey ho, you don’t know, is it a joke? No, I said noI’m serious, more serious than I’ve ever beenI’ve ever been
So don’t stop feeling audacious, there’s no one to save usSo just carry onAnd don’t go blaming the neighbors, you know they’re the same as usWe should just get onGet on
Did you ever get the feeling that your world has come undone?No revealing of a reason to carry onWhen hey there, it’s thereWaiting just in there, ready any time to come alongAlong
So don’t stop feeling audacious, the unknown and the famousThey say just carry onAnd no, there’s just us to save us, forget any favorsWe should just get on
