The Living Goes On

THE LIVING GOES ON - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Another young, pretty girl, gets abducted 

Everybody's hoping for the best 

Is she dead? 

She's been missing and we've been wishing

And the newspapers have another story

Then they find the body ... and she's dead

The living goes on 

Lunacy is like, all around us 

Every now and then it happens close to the heart

And to the home 

We can't keep pretending that we live in a perfect world 

That government will protect us 

Protect yourselves and your loved ones because 

The living goes on 

Do you want to spend the rest of 

Your life living with the tragedy when

Your baby is gone, and missing forever

Face down in a muddy river

Face down

Look around

Lunacy is standing right in front of you

When the crazy people kill

They really mean to kill 

When your child is dead

They are really dead

Everything is dead

The living goes on 

Education is the best way 

Teach the children not to be so naive 

Lunacy is dwelling deep inside the city

Just outside the country town

Deep inside your pity

The papers get their story

Just another story 

Nightmares are the story 

But

The living goes on
