I won't live to see my beliefs come true
I will die to choke on a bone
'cause there ain't no love as clean as a dove
So carry on, my darling
Plunge your sharpened knife
Through my naked flesh
The only thing that's still mine
For i've given you all that i ever had
So carry on, my darling
Like a hurricane destroys the land
Disappointment cuts through my life
Leaving nothing good but a broken pride
So carry on, my darling
What a fool
I put my trust where i can't see, where i can't touch
But i'm no soldier, it ain't no war
I am yours for what it's worth
So carry on, my darling
