Lyrics: Marion Cotillard. Other. The Strong Ones.


The strong ones aren't supposed to fall like this
No they're not supposed to fail
The strong ones aren't caught bending in the wind
We'll be the ones to find our way
We'll be the ones to find our way

The strong ones aren't supposed to crumble down
Like a city laid to waste
The strong one's faith won't be seen wavering
We'd be the ones to keep our way
We'd be the ones to keep our way

Sometimes the soft ones feel the grace
Sometimes getting broken gives you strength

Ooo wah wah wah wah way
Keep going on, keep going on
Ooo bah bah bah bah way
Keep going on, keep going on

The strong ones watch the sand blow off their feet
And neatly gather stones and seeds
The strong ones kneel down under waxing moons
And sleep with hands outstretched to catch the dunes
And marry the dust of bones and make them new

Sometimes the soft ones feel the grace
Sometimes getting broken gives you strength

Ooh wah wah wah wah way
Keep going on, keep going on
Ooh bah bah bah bah way
Keep going on, keep going on

Keep going on, keep going on
Keep going on, keep going on
