Carry On Wayward Son
Carry on, my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man I hear the voices when I'm dreaming I can hear them say Carry on, my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune But I hear the voices say Carry on, my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more, no Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, nothing equals the splendor Now your life's no longer empty But surely heaven waits for you Carry on, my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry, don't you cry no more No more

Don't you think that I'm bound to react now? Well, my fingers definitely turning to black now Yeah, well maybe I'll put my love on ice Teach myself, maybe that'll be nice, yeah My books are sitting at the top of the stack now The longer words are really breaking my back now, yeah Maybe I'll learn to understand Drawing a square with a pencil in hand, yeah Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah Mathematically turning the page Unequivocally showing my age I'm practically center stage Undeniably earning your wage Well maybe I'll put my love on ice And teach myself, maybe that'll be nice, yeah Listen master, can you answer a question? Is it the fingers, or the brain That you're teaching a lesson? I can't tell you how proud I am I'm writing down things that I don't understand [Outro] Well, maybe I'll put my love on ice And teach myself, maybe that'll be nice, yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
