"Carry On"
(Verse 1)
There was somethin' in yo' eyes that I saw tonight,
I never thought that I would see it (see it).
Now there's holes in my walls and there's glass on the floor
And you said yah "didn't mean it" (mean it).
You went from zero to none in these past three months on yo' level of affection.
I ain't gonna be that girl that cries herself to sleep
Puttin' up wit' yo' rejection, 'cause...
(Chorus)
I can't carry on (mmm-mmm-mmmm)
Livin' life like this (livin' like this).
This can't be what it is; I don't wanna live my life like this
(I don't wanna live).
(Chorus)
I can't carry on (I won't carry on)
Livin' life like (ohh!) this (livin' like this).
This can't be what it is; I don't wanna live my life like this.
(Verse 2)
When I try to make sense out what we have,
I always fall into depression ('pression).
Because I know in my heart that we've both grown apart,
Ain't no use in us pretendin' ('tendin').
We never talk on the phone, and you're never at home,
And if you are, there's always tension.
I ain't gonna be that girl that ends up stayin' (stayin'),
Sittin' around and just regrettin', 'cause...
(Chorus)
I can't carry on (mmm-mmm-mmmm)
Livin' life like this (livin' like this).
This can't be what it is; I don't wanna live my life like this.
(Chorus)
I can't carry (ohh!) on (no, no, no, no!)
Livin' life like this (livin' like this).
This can't be what it is; I don't wanna live my life.
(Verse 3)
I'm tired of fightin' (mmm!), I'm tired of spkyin' (mmmm),
My life is a storm (mmmm) full of rainin' and lightin' (mmm-mmm-mm).
My insides are pledin' from all of the screamin',
Sometimes I just feel like I'm no longer breathin'.
I look in yo' eyes (mmm!), all I see is a demon (mmmm).
I'm tired of wearin' my heart (mm-mmm) on my sleeve
And I just don't know why I stay (mmm-mm-mmmm),
'Cause day after day (mmm-mmm-mmmm) I continue to say...
(Chorus)
I can't carry on (I don't wanna carry on!)
Livin' life like this (livin' like this).
This can't be what it is; I don't wanna live my life like this.
(Chorus)
I can't carry (no) on (no)
Livin' life like this (livin' like this).
This can't be what it is; I don't wanna live my life like this.
(Outro: Harmony)
Mmm (mmm)... mmmm (mmmm)...
Mmm-mmm-mm (mmm-mm)...
Mmmm-mmmm-mmm-mm-mmm (mmm)...
Mm-mmm-mmm (mmm-mm)...
Mm-mm-heh-oh (heh-eeh)...
