about

Written by Julian Primeaux

lyrics

So much I remember,
And even more I wanna say,
But Mama I can't forgive here,
'Cause she took my heart away.

When it's gettin' close to midnight,
I can still see without a light.
But with all this confusion I can't get no rest,
My hearts still beatin', but with no pulse left.
Goin' down the road in a crimson cadillac,
Should I accept the change, can I still turn back.
Is there a Heaven above, for those who pray,
Or is life on Earth the Hell we must pay?

Carrion, carry on,
Even closer to the wayward sun,
Yeah, better make a move while I'm still young,
So I say, carrion, carry on.

A tear and a smile is all I can give,
As people die now Lord, as they struggle to live.
Tell me a lie or tell me the truth.
Just tell me the lie now, I have lost all my youth.
Sometimes I lay here and I dream,
Of the past now a never ending sea.
Why do we pass such a thing by,
Why do we let such a good thing die?

Carrion, carry on,
Even closer to the wayward sun,
Yeah, and I've only just begun,
So I say, carrion, carry on.

So much I remember,
And even more I wanna say,
But Mama I can't forgive here,
'Cause she took my heart away.
