Verse 1

When you reach an all time low     

There’s no other way to go

Only upwards

When you try your very best

Still you fail to pass the test

You don’t cut the mustard

 

Pre Chorus

When all hope is gone

Keep on keeping on

 

Chorus

And you will rise again

Higher than before

Your heart will fill with joy

Your self-esteem will be restored

 

Melancholy moments are essential

But don't you dwell on them

 

 

Verse 2

When you have nothing more to say

You have no more chords to play

You think you've reached your full potential

When tainted thoughts invade your brain

And there's no drug to ease the pain

They're still experimental

 

Pre Chorus

When all hope is gone

Keep on keeping on

 

Chorus

And you will rise again

Higher than before

Your heart will fill with joy

Your self esteem will be restored

 

Self-inflicted wounds...they cut the deepest

But you will thrive again

 

INSTRUMENTAL

 

Chorus

And you will rise again

Higher than before

Your heart will fill with joy

You'll self esteem will be restored

 

Don't let the cynics get you down

Blow the cobwebs off your crown

You can turn your whole world 'round

If you just keep on keeping on

 

You've got to keep on keeping on

And you will rise again

You've got to keep on keeping on

And you will rise again

You've got to keep on keeping on

 

And you will rise again

 

INSTRUMENTAL/Outro

​

Tainted thoughts won't last forever

Open wounds will fuse together

Keep on keeping on

And you will rise again

 

You will rise again

 

Just keep on keeping on

Just keep on keeping on
