Life Goes On Lyrics by The Sundays

Cry - Single

0

[Verse 1]
Build me up, don't get me down
Weather the storm
Well, life goes on
Feelings ebb and flow by hour
You're up in the clouds
And then you sink like a stone
[Chorus]
So do you fill yourself with pills
Oh, to deaden your ills?
Or are you only one love short of happiness?
And in a picture on the wall
No glimmer of yourself at all
You've left yourself fall away
[Verse 2]
Build me up, don't mop my brow
Weather the storm
Because life goes on
Missed my only hope right now
It's all I can do
Not to sink like a stone
[Chorus]
So do you fill yourself with pills
Oh, to deaden your ills?
Or are you only one love short of happiness?
And in a picture on the wall
No glimmer of yourself at all
You've left yourself far away
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
So do you fill yourself with pills
To cure you of your ills?
Or are you only one love short of the happy days to come?
And in a picture on the wall
Can't see your face at all
So untie yourself
Because that's all you've got to do
And I can grow a pair of wings
And I can take up flying
There'll be no crying
Up in the air, looking back down
And let me tell you, if I talk about gloom
I don't get up on feeling down
It strips you of yourself
And splits you from the self that you know
