Weight of the World, Pt. II

Every morning that we're here

Is a moral obligation to re-right the ship and steer

Oh, and every whisper in our ear

Is the warning of a woman who has lived through all our fears

And she begins to wash us away

In the motives that we have

And the messes that we made

A mirror to our every day

And the choices that we have And the way we choose to stay

Oh, she carries the weight of the world

She carries the weight of the world

She carries each stupid indecision and each politician's vision

And every piece of trash we've hurled

So you have studied and you've learned

And they want you to eat off of all the exposure that you've earned

Patiently waiting for your turn

So you build yourself a life and then you file your tax returns

And she begins to wash us away

In the motives that we have

And the messes that we made

A mirror to our every day

And the choices that we have

And the way we choose to stay

Oh, she carries the weight of the world

She carries the weight of the world

She carries each stupid indecision and each politician's vision

And every piece of trash we've hurled

Oh, the messes that we've made

And the pennies that we've saved

Just to make ourselves a nice, relaxing

Cold and lonely grave

All the people that are here

We don't simply disappear

We leave our mark in Love and hope and song

And mess and trash and fear

Oh, she carries the weight of the world

She carries the weight of the world

She carries each stupid indecision and each politician's vision

And every piece of trash we've hurled

Can we get a break for this girl

Can we get a break for this girl

From the weight of the world
