On & On & On
Streetlight Manifesto

I still remember that night, It was the fourth of July.
It's still engraved in my mind and I'm not suprised.
Gang wars, no guns, hand to hand.
You're black. I'm white, he's purple.
But I still don't understand.
I'm going to be alright. I'm going to be okay
Everything is going to be fine
Back off. I want to be alone
I want to think it out and
I'm thinking that I want to go home.

Look who's laughing now. I'll pull it off somehow.
As I passed her by, I could see her cry.
And I'll never forget the look that was in her eye
And the music you know it played on and on and on
So won't somebody tap her on the shoulder tell her life goes on.

Three years, two months, one week, four days
I'm always counting down because there ain't no easier way.
Trust me you know that I tried
and if I said it was easy then you know that I told a lie.
I'm going to be alright. I'm going to be just fine.
One down, five billion to go. Am I the next in line,
And do I really want to know?

Look who's laughing now. I'll pull it off somehow.
As I passed her by, I could see her cry.
And I'll never forget the look that was in her eye
And the music you know it played on & and on & on
So won't somebody tap her on the shoulder tell her life goes on.
