Never let the current sink you down, no
Even when you're not sure where you're goin'
Swimming through a mess and you can't get out
Just going through the motions,
and tryin' not to drown

Chorus

Even through a storm on the darkest night
Don't you ever give up the fight
Even when you feel you're all alone
Play on
Play on

Chorus:
Play on
When you're losing the game
Play on
'Cause you're gonna make mistakes
It's always worth the sacrifice
Even when you think you're wrong
So play on
Play on (Play on)
Play on (Play on)

Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
