We Carry On

By HeadpatSlut

We Carry On




Through ages past and friends that died-
And times of loss and sorrow-
While shadows fade and tears subside-
We hold on to tomorrow.

While Darkness holds us tight in Hell-
We strive to grasp the Light-
To those in death we say farewell-
We shall escape the Night.

If nightmares keep our spirits haunted-
Like tempests they assail-
We stand and fight with them undaunted
We know we must prevail.

If not for them, then for each other-
For love alone, we strive-
Because she loves me, and I love her-
And so we stay alive.

And so for her I battle through-
To walk into the Dawn-
I know for me, she battles to-
And so we carry on.
