You Must Go On

You must go on! Our present is dark and full of sorrow And fog is blocking our view of tomorrow But your fate and mine are intertwined Thus, you must go on, don't look behind. With your hand in mine, we will reach the moon And defeat the storms and the heat of June! Our sinister ambience we shall allude. And paint the world with a joyful mood. The caliber of darkness is hard to defeat Yet, if you stay with me, we will be complete Our unison discharges a piercing light; obscurity shall dissolve and we will be alright! The dispiriting whispers are like asphyxiating weeds That smother your courage and uproot its seeds The tumbling fortress of your soul, Will be restored if you pursue your goal. Yesterday, when the ships of the world betrayed us and overboard we got hurled Remember, how you and I, boarded our dreams as vessels until we reached those translucent streams. The promising portrait of the coming dawn Across our horizons will soon be drawn Just one more step, don't look away Witness the birth of a new day!
