lyrics

A song that keeps on playing on
After the music's done
It's the song that keeps me holding on
We're all singing along
To the song that keeps on rolling on
Until my time is gone

Let it be known: you're on your own
you made your bed, you choose your throne
you draw your face, and on and on
To never get punked in the pressure zone
Stoned and toned we wait at the gates but can't get in
The crowd is cheering and I'm feeling so alone

I know, I know
Keep moving, keep moving on
Be strong
Never let the pressure build
But if the pressure builds then swallow

In troubled times, doubled minds
Pay no attention to the warning signs
Neither the science, nor the divine
And I'm wondering where we gonna go dance tonight
Right? Tight
Follow the light
House is on fire but that's alright
Ai'ight?

Just hold on tight to the song that keeps on rolling on
After the music's done
It's the song that keeps me holding on
When the light is gone

Gripping the wheel, making the steal
Devil's in the deal but he don't care
Taking your share, buyer beware
You gotta be ready from the get-go
Weight on my mind, wait for a sign
Wasting the days 'til party time
Now I'm flying and I'm feeling so alone

I'm soaring in my own
Although my will is gone
I float above my home and stare wide-eyed at the sky
And as I watch in come the clouds in the night
I'm cold in the wind and high as a kite
all pummelled by hailstones and tossed left and right
and left to die in the thundering might

It keeps me holding on
Now I'm falling feather-light
It's the song that keeps on rolling on
Onto my pillow and one more good night
A song to keep me holding on
After the music's done
