Gotta keep myself from waking up
So that I don't have to see you're not there
Not there, not there
Gotta tell myself I'm not in love
So that I don't have to say it ain't fair
Ain't fair, ain't fair
While I hide behind the sorrow of my smile
We carry on, carry on
I'll admit that it might take a little while
But life goes on, life goes on
Life goes on (life goes on)
Life goes on
While I hide behind the sorrow of my smile
We carry on, carry on
I'll admit that it might take a little while
But life goes on, life goes on
Gotta keep the sky from turning gray
So that I don't have to deal with the truth
The truth, the truth
I'd rather have the sun burn right through me
If I don't have to be blue
Be blue, be blue
While I hide behind the sorrow of my smile
We carry on, carry on
I'll admit that it might take a little while
But life goes on, life goes on
