Title: Somehow I Keep Going [Intro: Fast ska rhythm, walking bass, melodic skatepunk guitar, bright horn section] [Verse 1: Fast melodic skatepunk, conversational delivery] I thought by now I'd have it figured out A better job, a better place, something I could be proud of But I'm still here trying to work things out Making the same mistakes and wondering what they're all about Some people seem to know exactly where they're going While I'm still changing my mind every other week I used to think that meant I was falling behind Now I'm starting to think maybe I'm just taking my time [Pre-Chorus: Strong ska rhythm, clean guitar upstrokes, bouncy bass] I don't have all the answers I never said I did But every time I fall down I get back up again [Chorus: Fast ska-punk, melodic skatepunk guitar, double-time drums, massive horns] Somehow I keep going! Even when I don't know where I'm going! I don't need to have it all worked out tonight I just need another reason to keep trying Somehow I keep going! Even when everything feels wrong! Maybe I'm not where I wanted to be But I'm still here, and that's enough for me! [Instrumental: Fast skanking guitar, walking bass, trumpet and trombone interplay] [Verse 2: Fast melodic skatepunk, emotional conversational delivery] I've had some plans that didn't work out I've watched good chances disappear before I could hold on I've said some things I wish I could take back And I've spent too much time thinking about all of that But nobody told me life would make much sense Nobody said every choice would turn out right So I'll take what I've learned from the things that went wrong And see where I end up if I just keep moving on [Pre-Chorus: Strong ska groove, guitar upstrokes, bouncing bass, building energy] I don't have all the answers I never said I did But every time I fall down I get back up again [Chorus: Full-speed ska-punk/skatepunk, explosive drums, distorted guitars, huge brass] Somehow I keep going! Even when I don't know where I'm going! I don't need to have it all worked out tonight I just need another reason to keep trying Somehow I keep going! Even when everything feels wrong! Maybe I'm not where I wanted to be But I'm still here, and that's enough for me! [Bridge: Half-time ska-punk breakdown, walking bass, rim clicks, emotional vocal] Maybe tomorrow will be better Maybe it won't, I can't say But I've made it through every bad day That I thought I couldn't face So if you're asking where I'm headed Honestly, I don't really know But I've come this far already And I'm not ready to go [Guitar & Saxophone Solo: Very fast melodic skatepunk guitar solo followed by energetic saxophone solo] [Chorus: Maximum-speed ska-punk, full distorted guitars, double-time drums, massive brass] Somehow I keep going! Even when I don't know where I'm going! I don't need to have it all worked out tonight I just need another reason to keep trying Somehow I keep going! Even when everything feels wrong! Maybe I'm not where I wanted to be But I'm still here, and that's enough for me! [Outro: Fast ska drums, walking bass, blazing horns] I don't know where I'm going I just know I'm not done One more day One more try [End]
