I swear I know your face, |
|
I wish I knew your name |
|
I wish I could take you by the hand |
|
If I could name it |
|
If I could just explain it |
|
If I could only help you, |
|
help you understand |
|
I can see that you're hurting |
|
weighed down like a beast of burden |
|
about to break your back. |
|
God only knows that you're human |
|
So what are they trying to do then |
|
Believe me, they don't understand |
|
That you have the weight of the world today |
|
It's on your back |
|
A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back |
|
It's gonna drag you down |
|
You know it just can't last, just can't |
|
You know it just can't last |
|
They thought they could use you |
|
Push you down and abuse you |
|
And what's so sad is you've decided to hide |
|
all your feelings |
|
Got more pain than you can deal with |
|
but ask yourself how can this last |
|
I know you have the weight of the world today |
|
It's on your back |
|
A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back |
|
It's gonna drag you down |
|
You know it just can't last, just can't |
|
You know it just can't last |
