HOW DO WE CARRY ON? Verse 1 How do we carry on When all around you is crashing down? When you no longer see the light, And every day feels like a fight. What do you do, where do you go? When you're drowning in the undertow? How do you find a way somehow To make it through the darkness now? Pre-Chorus How do you get through this? How do you win the fight? When the battle's in your head And you're running out of light? Chorus Where does the strength to carry on come from? Someone please, just tell me where. When you're searching for an answer And you're wondering if anybody cares. Someone show me the light again, Show me there's a way back home. When you're fighting with yourself And you feel like you're alone. Verse 2 Look deep, look deep inside, There's still a little spark you hide. You've just got to find it there, Buried underneath the pain and fear. You've been holding on so long, Thinking that you've got it wrong. But every breath you take tonight Is another little victory in the fight. Pre-Chorus How do you get through this? You take it day by day. You don't have to see the ending, You just have to find a way. Chorus Where does the strength to carry on come from? Someone please, just tell me where. It comes from somewhere deep inside you, Even when you think there's nothing there. Someone show me the light again, Show me there's a way back home. When you're fighting with yourself You don't have to fight alone. Bridge And maybe strength isn't standing tall, Maybe it's getting up when you fall. Maybe courage is one more breath, One more step when you're scared to death. And if your heart says, "I can't go on," Hold on a little longer till the darkness is gone. The sun will rise, the night will end, And you'll find yourself again. Final Chorus Where does the strength to carry on come from? Now I finally know where it starts. It's in the little voice inside you Saying, "Don't give up on your heart." Let someone show you the light again, You don't have to walk alone. When you're fighting with yourself, There is always a way back home. Outro So look deep… Look deep inside. You've still got something left to find. There is no other way but through… And one day you'll look back and say, "I made it through."
