The Weight |
| I’m going down to the riverbank this morning |
| Way before the family is awake |
| Gonna lay me down at the foot of the water |
| And spill out all my troubles for everyone’s sake |
| You can’t have love when you never can surrender |
| I’ve been spreading around my anger like a plague |
| I’ve sailed this far with my boat on fire |
| Fighting flames each day, too stubborn to expire |
| I will soak my soul |
| Let the river take control |
| Let the river take control |
| I know it’s not too late |
| To let go the weight |
| To let go the weight |
| The sun will rise and shine on me this morning |
| It will seep its way into my heart |
| And untie all the knots that have hardened me through the years |
| And I’ll embrace wisdom that sun will impart |
| And with this heat burning inside me |
| I will warm all of the people that I love |
| In their darkest of hours and weakest of minds |
| I’ll light up their nights with every star I can find |
| I will soak my soul |
| Let the river take control |
| Let the river take control |
| I know it’s not too late |
| To let go the weight |
| To let go the weight |
