Mama told me not to get involved

But I never did what I was told

Always drawn to the golden light

And it would happen every single night

Carry on, carry on, carry on

We were living by the ?, never talking to the jakes that turn up at school

And I'd pretend that I was fine enough, but I was never giving up

Carry on, carry on, carry on.

And I saw my devil closing in

Never thought I'd do such bad things

You saved me though

Little by little love

And I try so hard to burry that stuff

Never thought I'd get so fucked up

You saved me though

Little by little love, little by little love.

Misbehaviour, clocking out reports

Where's your manners, where's the things you're taught

I said "what's your business with the things I do?"

You say "boy, if you only had a clue"

Carry on, carry on, carry on

All them years and never thinking straight

In my own way I was lying awake

All my demons came whispering

Telling me carry on, carry on, carry on.

And I saw my devil closing in

Never thought I'd do such bad things

You saved me though

Little by little love

And I try so hard to burry that stuff

Never thought I'd get so fucked up

You saved me though

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love.

And I saw my devil closing in

Never thought I'd do such bad things

You saved me though

Little by little love

And I try so hard to bury that stuff

Never thought I'd get so fucked up

You saved me though

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love, little by little love

Little by little love, little by little love.
