The Carried Demo by Opiate for the Masses Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Swallowin' self-imposed, compensated pieces of what I know
Breathin', lettin' go
One day at a time is still too slow
[Pre-Chorus]
I have not lived like this
Gonna shape another one. Will I miss?
I have not felt like this
Every day gets longer now
What if I should miss?
It comes around
Beats me again
It comes around
[Chorus]
So when I can't go on, would you carry me?
If I ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If I never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'Cause even when I'm strong, I'm still on my knees
[Verse 2]
Crawlin', no more floor
Though she's jaded mе, I still need more
Rotten from the corе
Impatiently waitin' what's in store
[Pre-Chorus]
I have not lived like this
Gonna shape another one. Will I miss?
I have not felt like this
Every day gets longer now
What if I should miss?
It comes around
Beats me again
It comes around
[Chorus]
So when I can't go on, would you carry me?
If I ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If I never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'Cause even when I'm strong, I'm still on my knees
[Bridge]
Stare at me - Eye to eye
Comfort me - As I cry
Bury me - When I die
Carry me
[Chorus]
So when I can't go on, would you carry me?
If I ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If I never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'Cause even when I'm strong, I'm still on my knees
Swallowin' self-imposed, compensated pieces of what I know
Breathin', lettin' go
One day at a time is still too slow
[Pre-Chorus]
I have not lived like this
Gonna shape another one. Will I miss?
I have not felt like this
Every day gets longer now
What if I should miss?
It comes around
Beats me again
It comes around
[Chorus]
So when I can't go on, would you carry me?
If I ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If I never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'Cause even when I'm strong, I'm still on my knees
[Verse 2]
Crawlin', no more floor
Though she's jaded mе, I still need more
Rotten from the corе
Impatiently waitin' what's in store
[Pre-Chorus]
I have not lived like this
Gonna shape another one. Will I miss?
I have not felt like this
Every day gets longer now
What if I should miss?
It comes around
Beats me again
It comes around
[Chorus]
So when I can't go on, would you carry me?
If I ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
If I never wrote this song, would you carry me?
'Cause even when I'm strong, I'm still on my knees
[Bridge]
Stare at me - Eye to eye
Comfort me - As I cry

Carry me
[Chorus]
So when I can't go on, would you carry me?
If I ever do you wrong, would you carry me?
