Carry On (Rise Cast Version)
[Verse: Shannon Purser]
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 am not the ghost you are to me
[Chorus: Shannon Purser, Shannon Purser & Rise Cast]
If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinkin' like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground and
Carry on
[Bridge: Shannon Purser & Rise Cast]
'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
[Chorus: Shannon Purser & Rise Cast]
If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinkin' like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground and
Carry on
[Outro: Shannon Purser & Rise Cast]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
