Lyrics

I’m much too tired to meet a whole new face

I feel too exhausted to engage with a new person.

I make a fuss and find a weak excuse

I create a commotion and come up with feeble excuses.

All these places, I avoid, I dread

I avoid and fear certain places.

But I know it’s no better for you, too

Recognizing that it's not any better for you either.


On and on I said I will be there, life will carry on

I promised to be present, insisting that life will continue.

On and on I said, bring it on, bring it all on me

I persist in facing challenges, embracing everything that comes my way.


Paintings of the decay

Observing deteriorating situations through artistic expressions.

I blame myself when I go the wrong way

I hold myself accountable when I make mistakes or go astray.

Ask me why I’m here, if I can’t clean my own mess

Questioning my presence when I can't resolve my own problems.

It’s because I know you better than you do

Stating that I understand you better than you understand yourself.


On and on I said I will be there, life will carry on

Reiterating the commitment to be there as life progresses.

On and on I said, bring it on, bring it all on me

Expressing readiness to face and accept all challenges.


Bring it all on

An emphatic call to bring on all challenges and difficulties.


top of me, where we leave enough

Referring to a space above, where we leave sufficient room.

I will grow myself, and learn to live the life that you taught me

Committing to personal growth and learning the life lessons taught.


On and on I said I will be there, life will carry on

Reaffirming the commitment to be present as life continues.

On and on I said, bring it on, bring it all on me

Continuing to face challenges, welcoming them with openness.


On and on I said I will be there, life will carry on

Renewing the pledge to be there as life unfolds.

On and on I said, bring it on, bring it all on me

Persisting in the willingness to embrace all that life brings.
