Weight of the World
I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
Ceaseless ticking drowning out
A silly chosen waste
Stare into the wrong intention
Dallying in haste
Restless seasons tending never
Getting off my feet
Duty, time tune out my mind
I could only dream of sleep
And I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
Blessed son
I chose for one
And all of whom I speak
These honeyed days of plenty now
The story's not unique
Standing on a shoulder
And I'm sorry if I'm grave
Sorry for the taken
And for the ones that gave
And I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
And I can't sit here all my days
Waiting for fortune to smile upon me
Before I'm only remembered fondly
Before the end of the day
Places now it's curtain time
And soon the time is gone
I'm glad to see we all agree
To see the show go on
Not so proud of everything
But I'd never choose regret
Push it forward keep in mind
The joys we haven't met
And I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
Ceaseless ticking drowning out
A silly chosen waste
Stare into the wrong intention
Dallying in haste
Restless seasons tending never
Getting off my feet
Duty, time tune out my mind
I could only dream of sleep
And I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
Blessed son
I chose for one
And all of whom I speak
These honeyed days of plenty now
The story's not unique
Standing on a shoulder
And I'm sorry if I'm grave
Sorry for the taken
And for the ones that gave
And I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
And I can't sit here all my days
Waiting for fortune to smile upon me
Before I'm only remembered fondly
Before the end of the day
Places now it's curtain time
And soon the time is gone
I'm glad to see we all agree
To see the show go on
Not so proud of everything
But I'd never choose regret
Push it forward keep in mind
The joys we haven't met
And I can't sit here all my life
With the weight of the world upon me
Before I see it all gets beyond me
Before it all goes away
