The Weight

Tattered down, but built to spill
All the guts it takes to swallow down this pill
It's over now, it's over now

So, drag your rake through the burning fields of who you use to be
And, watch the ashes of what you're looking for all blow away

Who will gather the pieces
When the weight of the world comes crashing down
And, when the avalanche begins to slide
Who will be by your side
Who will lift your head up
When the weight of the world is gonna have you drown
And, when the waves rush in with the tide
Who will be by your side

Hollowed out, left with the shell
Where the old ghost use to only give you hell
It's over now, it's over now

So, fill the empty valley left by the fear and shame
With the coffin of the person you use to be

Do you find it hard to breathe
Now that you're buried beneath the weight

'Cause I am ready to tell you
So, tell me
Who will be by my side
When the weight of the world is gonna have me drown
Who will be by my side
When the weight of the world is comes crashing down
Who will be by my side
When the weight of the world is gonna have me drown
Who will be by my side
I need to know, so tell me

Who will gather the pieces
When the weight of the world comes crashing down
And, when the avalanche begins to slide
Who will be by my side
Who will lift my head up
When the weight of the world is gonna have me drown
And, when the waves rush in with the tide
Who will be by my side

So, I'll drag my rake through the burning fields of who I use to be
And, pray the ashes of what I'm looking for all blow away
