To Keep on Going

You suspect
that everything we feared is coming true
and everything we
once hoped we would do
--may not ever happen

You reflect
on what it was we did
that brought us here
Was it just bad luck
the bombardier
had us in his sights today?

Life will take us where it will
Somehow you find the strength
or find the skill
--to keep on going

Now you see
how living in a bad dream runs you down
You don’t even notice what’s around
—how it could be different

Is it fair?
That is not the question we should ask
the concentration underlies the tasks
that keeps us going

Life will take us where it will
Somehow you find the strength
or find the skill
--to keep on going

We are led by our desires
and it’s hard to think them through
as we lead ourselves in circles
as I know I often do
but I know there’s something better
and I’m holding out fine
it comes and goes for moments at a time

So we’ll see
How we’re going to take it now from here
it’s gonna take some luck
that much is clear
are we feeling lucky?

Take a rest
work won’t always work when you get tired
easy to forget the way we’re wired
over the long haul

Life will take us where it will
Somehow you find the strength
or find the skill
--to keep on going

to keep on going
