My life was a long path A dark trip into my own fears I was angry Afraid I can't follow my heart, my love In ruins I had none to embrace, despair The end coming closer for me
{Chorus} Oh Sweet pain my relief From misery I flee A gun in my hand Shall I go now Take my life I won't do I'll stand tall again Carry on, carry on I will live on
A young boy is crying My soul torn apart from the start See my mother She left me to die in the cold No love, just pain fills my soul I'm alone No hope, no reason to reach for the light
{Chorus} Oh Sweet pain my relief From misery I flee A gun in my hand Shall I go now Take my life I won't do I'll stand tall again Carry on, carry on I will live on
