Carry Me Forward Lyrics

I walk, walls on both sides the places I don't belong

With this narrow road the only safe path to walk along

And my songs carry me forward

My songs carry me forward

A marching beat in the chorus

Gives me strength

My thoughts are wrapped in verses

Providing my speech

I am weak

But My songs carry forward

My songs carry me forward

Is this where I belong

The quiet road I walk upon

So many would have come with me

But i got lost within the song

And now I'm tripping over words

Like they are not mine to say

They are simply wrapped around me

And pulling me away

Singing songs to someone

I don't see anymore

I'm hoping they are somewhere better

Than where they were before

But know I'm just a sinner

Giving it all to God

Cause it's getting me nowhere

But it's all I got

It's a long long walk

And I've done this many times before

To take a song along to talk

To the walls the guards call a door

It's a symptom of the artistic grift

To be left more broken than when we started

And to be left wanting more than I get

And to find myself alone and broken hearted

It's kinda funny, I still have hope in the path

Even though it's winding and overgrown

It's still better than what came last

And It's carried me this far on its own

It's rubble and thorns but still bearing fruit

It's kinda like horns blowing dissonant truth

It's a symphony that has yet to begin

It's a walled city, and the path within
