Carry On
The Donnis Trio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

cary on, girl
Don't let it fly up in your face
Don't let your instincts get replaced
there is more work to be done
carry on girl
dont let their thoughts get in your way
dont let them tell you what to say
you've got an imaculate mind
try to get some rest
let yourself relax
you've got a long
day before you now
carry on girl
don't let them weigh you to the ground
don't let yourself get turned around
somethings are better off unsaid
try to get some rest
let yourself relax
youve got a long
day before you now
carry on
and if you keep
holding on
just let go
and if the panic swells
just let go
all directions you posses
are your own
all directions you possess
are your own
they are your own




they are your own
end

Letra en español:

Bueno, te quedas despierto toda la noche
Píldoras y café
Te sigues presionando para salir adelante
Y tocas tan fuerte, pero nada responderá
Solo una pérdida de tiempo, pero no lo vas a admitir

Tu solo lo estas intentando poner demasiado difícil.
Como un verso que se ha perdido
Y no hay palabras para encontrarlo

Como un niño adolescente que no puede encajar
Y la lucha es larga, tu paciencia desaparecida
Sólo una bofetada en la cara cuando el día termina.
Tu solo lo estas intentando poner demasiado difícil.



@marcosgalan3206

Lyric:

Well you stay up all night
Pills and coffee
You keep pushing yourself just to get ahead
And you knock so loud, but nothing will answer
Just a waste of time, but you won't admit

You’re just trying too hard
Like a verse that’s lost
And no words to find it

Like a teenage kid that just can't fit in
And the struggle’s long, your patience gone
Just a slap in the face when the day is done
You’re just trying too hard.

I love this song, it's been a friend that kept me company in the loneliest of times. But I'd never seen the video before and now this piece of art adds to the charm of the song.

@natedonnismusic

Thanks glad you like it.

This song makes me at the same time feel really sad and really alive. Sad bc I know the world and I could be better, and happy bc I'm grateful for what I have until now, family, friends, live, pets, everything. It makes me think we all could do better, but at the same time, to not rush it, but believe it. Don't force yourself to be better of perfect at something; trust yourself and love yourself and others around you, believe in you and in them, don't force or discourage yourself, love yourself and you and life around you will evolve. Believe in the good in people! Thank you for this beautiful piece of art.

This is a song that I dont look up often, but sometimes it pops up on shuffle and I always check the artist bc I can't remember who it is. I don't know how I got this downloaded but I always think this is a popular song until I look it up and I still can't believe it is so under-viewed. Great song my man

@andrewvelarde1985
