On And On We Go

from Cat With A Spider by Guy Johnson

/

about

Sometimes it baffles me how man is capable of such atrocities and then equally capable of such compassion and altruism. This song is about that dichotomy in his nature.
The human and spiritual side of that most complex of creatures.

lyrics

WHAT KIND OF WORLD
WOULD BREAK A MAN IN TWO?
HAVING REACHED AN ALL TIME LOW
WITH NOTHING LEFT TO DO
OUT OF NOWHERE COMES A HELPING HAND
WHERE IT’S LEAST EXPECTED
FROM ANOTHER BROKEN MAN

IT MAY SEEM ABSURD
ON AND ON WE GO, ON AND ON WE GO
NO MATTER HOW ABSURD

ON CHRISTMAS DAY
A LONG, LONG TIME AGO
SOLDIERS ON THE FRONT LINE
THEY MET THEIR DEADLY FOES
ON NO-MANS-LAND
THEY KICKED A BALL AROUND
EXCHANGING GIFTS FROM THEIR HOME TOWNS
THEY SHOOK EACH OTHER’S HANDS

IT MAY SEEM ABSURD
ON AND ON WE GO
NO MATTER HOW ABSURD

BREAK DOWN THE BARRIERS
ONE STONE AT A TIME

THE HUMAN SPIRIT’S
STRONGER THAN WE KNOW
THROUGH ALL THE PAIN AND SUFFERING
IT NEVER SEEMS TO SLOW
IT HAS NO TIME FOR PREJUDICE AND HATE
A COMMON POINT OF CONTACT
EACH CONNECTION THAT IT MAKES

IT MAY SEEM ABSURD
ON AND ON WE GO…
