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
