So much pulling you away You seem so much older The weight of the way it is today The weight of the world on your shoulders I don’t want you to have to lift This burden anymore I wish I could give you the gift Of relief Hazy looking through The window smeared with blood A hard rain hurricane and you In the center of the flood I don’t want you to have to lift This burden anymore I wish I could give you the gift Of relief Brown eyes turning blue A child can’t keep from laughing Though the wound on his neck is new And the lady stands there asking I don’t want you to have to lift This burden anymore I wish I could give you the gift Of relief
