Lyrics

It was only one hour ago It was all so different then As nothing yet has really sunk in Looks like it always did This flesh and bone Is just the way that you were tied in Now, there's no one home I grieve for you And you leave me It's so hard to move on Still loving what's gone And still, life carries on Carries on, and on, and on, and on The news that truly shocks Is the empty, empty page While the final rattle rocks Its empty, empty cage And I can't handle this I grieve for you And you leave me Let it out and move on Missing what's gone They say life carries on They say life carries on, and on, and on Life carries on in the people I meet And in everyone that's out on the street In all the dogs and cats In the flies and rats In the rot and the rust In the ashes and the dust Life carries on, and on, and on, and on Life carries on, and on, and on It's just the car that we ride in The home we reside in The face that we hide in The way we are tied in And life carries on, and on, and on, and on Life carries on, and on, and on Did I dream this belief? Or did I believe this dream? Now, I can find relief I grieve
