Weight of the World

I’ve seen the weight of the world

Crumble with an easy equation

I’ve seen the weight of a man

Gone to hell, cryin’ he don’t understand

I’ve seen the light of a woman

Shining through the world’s darkest hour

It takes a lifetime worth of daylight

And just spills it out as best as God knows how

It’s just like one plus one

The way that I’ve been livin’ ain’t the same

It’s like trying to get more daylight out of a

Steadfast setting sun

I’ve heard the God’s honest truth

Spoken with the color of a lie

I’ve seen the prophecies of mad men

All sounding like that vast uncloudy sky

I’ve seen the light of a woman

Shining through the thickest walls I’ve seen

It takes a lifetime worth of daylight

And just shines it on what truth there’s ever been

It’s just like one plus one

The way that I’ve been livin’ ain’t the same

It’s like trying to get more daylight out of a

Steadfast setting sun

Oh the way that I’ve been livin’ ain’t the same

It’s like trying to get more daylight out of a

Steadfast setting sun
