Lyrics

ONLY THE BRAVE CARRY ON

Twisted flames in old man's eyes sitting hypnotised like stone,
Life inside his clothed remains seem like he's had enough,
Lost his wife two months gone now, they say she's happy where she's gone,
I see the look in my Daddies eyes, only the brave carry on.

Broken hearted, but the world keeps spinning round
The sands keep falli,ng, like a falling leaf we wither then we die,

I don't wanna argue, I can't listen anymore,
I don't wanna see you, I close my eyes and you are gone,

Broken stones bearing names of old reflects tomorrow's names I know,
It's not that I don't care no more; it's that I can't care enough,
Time for me to spread my wings like the snow geese and turtle doves,
And live my life watching sunsets blazing as the cool wind sings its song,

Broken hearted, but the world keeps spinning round,
The sands keep falling, like falling leaf we wither then we die,

I don't wanna argue, I can't listen anymore,
I don't wanna see you, I close my eyes and you are gone,
I just want to hear you, I can't hear you anymore,
I just want to see you, I close my eyes and there you are,

Gone to the flame and now I am picking up the pieces,
Gone to the flame, and holding back those tears of pain,
Gone to the flame, only the soul remains leaving a memory,
Gone to the flame, so you can live again..........

Instrumental

Twisted flames in old man's eyes looking hypnotised like stone,
Life inside his clothed remains seems like... like he's had enough.........

I don't wanna argue, I can't listen anymore,
I don't wanna see you, I close my eyes and you are gone,
I just wanna hear you, I can't hear you anymore,
I just wanna see you, I close my eyes and there you are.

Only the brave carry on......
(Repeated 'til end)
