(Verse)
I'm not so sure if it's a gift
Or a curse that I have been given
To live with
Sometimes it's my only wish
That I didn't have to be so different
What's the reason
But you don't wanna be
(Pre-Chorus)
Going through the motions
As a ship sets on the oceans
Passing you all by
You're standing on side
A spectator of your old life
Don't you think it's time
You take a ride
(Chorus)
Why do you go on
Why do you go on
You should go for what you wanted all along
Why do you go on
Why do you go on
You try to feel it even when it felt so wrong
Instead of just going alone
Why don't you go alone
(Verse)
I want the world to sing along
But I'm not sure I can afford the costs
Without getting lost
I know that there's an easy way
But I'm not sure that I'm willing to play
I'm not so good at this game
'Cause I can be
(Pre-Chorus)
Going through the motions
As a ship sets on the oceans
Passing you all by
You're standing on side
A spectator of your old life
Don't you think it's time
You take a ride
(Chorus)
Why do you go on
Why do you go on
You should go for what you wanted all along
Why do you go on
Why do you go on
You try to feel it even when it felt so wrong
Instead of just going alone
Why don't you go alone
(Bridge)
I'm not saying it will be easy
But what choice do I have
I'll take head for being me oh no
For being somebody else
So I'll play with the cards
That I have been dealt
And I'll play my own game
(Chorus)
Why do you go on
Why do you go on
You should go for what you wanted all along
Why do you go on
Why do you go on
You try to feel it even when it felt so wrong
Instead of just going alone
Why don't you go alone
You might have to go alone
