We Carry on Lyrics

von Portishead

The taste of life
I can't describe
It's choking up my mind
I'm reaching out
I can't believe
The faith it can't decide

On and on, I carry on
But underneath am I
On and on, I tell myself
It's this I can't disguise

Oh can't you see
Holding on to my heart
I plead the taste of life

The pace of time
I can't survive
It's grinding down the view
Breaking out
Which way to choose
A choice I can't renew

On and on, I carry on
But underneath am I
On and on, I tell myself
It's this I can't disguise

Oh can't you see
Holding on to my heart
I plead
No place is safe
Can't you see
The taste of life
