"Walk On" lyrics

When you know
What you know
But fail to show
Just what you know
When your life
Staggers on
Like Stagger Lee
In an old song

You feel the pain
Of the rain
Pouring through
The window pane
You seem to lose
More than you gain
And only hope
And dreams remain

Walk on
Just walk on
Rock on
Rock on
Just walk on
Walk on
You can jazz it up
But rock on

When you're carrying
Your cross
Across your back
Across the tracks
When your wounds
Are cutting deep
And your burdens
Disturb your sleep

You swim the river
To the other side
No time to weep
Nowhere to hide
And every witness
Minds their own business
And there's no mercy
Only controversy

Walk on
Just walk on
Rock on
Rock on
Just walk on
Walk on
You can jazz it up
But rock on

If you're a shell
Of you former self
What the hell
Just loosen your belt
Heaven knows
It's never easy
Life's a bitch
But never quit

Love is hard
But so is lonely
As if it's coming
For you only
But keep in mind
The ways of time
Never move
In a straight line

Walk on
Just walk on
Rock on
Rock on
Just walk on
Walk on
You can jazz it up
But rock on

Walk on
Just walk on
Rock on
Rock on
Just walk on
Walk on
You can jazz it up
But rock on

Walk on, yeah
