Weight of the world

Dark sky, still moves above

She gives me warmth, she gives me love

But when the weight begins to bend

I’m on my own to make it end

Wake up, war inside my head

Heart gets tight, pressured by debt

She loves me, that I know

But love don’t lighten what I owe

Every cost, every late-night plan

Falls on me to make it stand

She holds me close, says it’s okay

But comfort doesn’t clear what I must pay

There are shoulders when I crash

But none to pull me through

She brings me peace, but not the cure

For everything I do

It’s all on me, every weight, every flame

No one to lift when the fire says my name

I can’t fold now, even shattered inside

This mountain’s mine, with no one to climb

No help, no break, just pain in disguise

But I still rise, yeah I still rise

She’s there with hugs, with gentle eyes

But not when sacrifice applies

I keep us fed, keep us whole

While she don’t feel that silent toll

She loves deep, she loves me true

But can’t see what I walk through

I’m building walls with hands that bleed

While wishing she could see the need

There are shoulders when I crash

But none to pull me through

She brings me peace, but not the cure

For everything I do

It’s all on me, every weight, every flame

No one to lift when the fire says my name

I can’t fold now, even shattered inside

This mountain’s mine, with no one to climb

No help, no break, just pain in disguise

But I still rise, yeah I still rise

She sees the stress, she feels the cold

But never asks what I hold

She kisses me through my despair

But don’t know what it’s like out there

Every debt, every silent plea

Gets swallowed down inside of me

She loves me loud, she loves me pure

But love alone won’t make us secure

There are shoulders when I crash

But none to pull me through

She brings me peace, but not the cure

For everything I do

It’s all on me, every weight, every flame

No one to lift when the fire says my name

I can’t fold now, even shattered inside

This mountain’s mine, with no one to climb

No help, no break, just pain in disguise

But I still rise, yeah I still rise

Broken but walking

Empty but breathing

Love keeps me going

But I carry the meaning
