Carry This

I wanted so much to do the right thing
I know
But I felt so left out
That could happen to anybody
I love you
But I'm not going to let you change me

Secret rooms in open spaces
Public bodies, hidden faces
A golden ruler with an iron fist
Takes your hands if you reach for his
Forms a circle with the rattle tail he chases

It's piling up a mountain
By dredging up an ocean

Roll the stone
I cannot just carry this
Put my shoulder under it
The leverage against my bones
I cannot just carry this
After all this bitterness is reckoned with
Can I come home

I cannot just carry this
I cannot just carry this
I cannot just carry this
I cannot just carry this
I cannot just carry this
I cannot just carry this

Drank the cup of a hundred lashes
Poured the justice of the masses
On a mission since the incidents
No advantage left in innocence
Nothing but smoke has ever risen from these ashes

Roll the stone
I cannot just carry this
Put my shoulder under it
The leverage against my bones
I cannot just carry this
After all this bitterness is reckoned with
Can I come home

It's piling up a mountain
By dredging up an ocean
Ouroboros never grows, Ouroboros never grows
Can I come home

But you can't expect me to be any different than what I am
