"Carry On" lyrics - BRET MCKENZIE

Tryna have a conversation
That doesn't end in doom
Looking for a future
That doesn't end too soon
I'm tryna comprehend
Where it all went wrong
Looking for an answer
So I can put it in a song

[Chorus:]
Carry on, I carry on
What else can I do?
Life goes on all alone
I'll do what I can do

[Post-Chorus:]
Ba-ba-da-ba
Ba-da, ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba-da-ba
Ba-da, ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-da, ba-ba-ba-da

I'm tryna raise my children
To look me in the eye
I'm looking for the secret
There's more to truth than I'd like
I'm tryna paint a picture
That doesn't turn out blue
I'm tryna see a future
Living without you

[Chorus:]
I carry on, I carry on
What else can I do?
Life goes on all alone
I'll do what I can do

[Outro:]
I'm driving 'round blind, my dear, I can't see the road
Wherever you are, my dear, will you let me know?
Ooh, I'm losing my mind out here, I can't see the road
Wherever I wind up dead, well, God only knows
Well, God only knows
