Carry On Lyrics

Well I've been beat down to the sound of laughter
but I'll be okay
And you can keep calling me your beautiful disaster
all damn day

See, I hold your heart like a part of me, baby
It's the only thing that's stopping me from falling down
Yeah, you're the harmony that keeps me sound

Now, if I stay or if I go
I'll always hold your heart of gold
For if I stray, if I'm not strong
you'll be my strength to carry on

Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on

Burn me down and dance around the ashes
I'll be okay
Cause' I go up like an airplane when it crashes
all damn day

See, I hold your heart like a part of me, baby
It's the only thing that's stopping me from falling down
Yeah, you're the harmony that keeps me sound

Now, if I stay or if I go
I'll always hold your heart of gold
For if I stray, if I'm not strong
you'll be my strength to carry on

Now, if I stay or if I go
I'll always hold your heart of gold
For if I stray, if I'm not strong
you'll be my strength to carry on

Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on

Never let me go,
I'm over lonely without you

So you can keep calling me your beautiful disaster,
I'll be okay

Now, if I stay or if I go
I'll always hold your heart of gold
For if I stray, if I'm not strong
you'll be my strength to carry on

Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on

Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
