In the long -winding road of life
The weight seems to cut like a knife
Each step is a fight in the dim light
To carry the weight day and night
There's a burden on my back
Like a shadow that never fades always in track
The dreams that once were bright
Now seem so far lost in the night
The world keeps spinning 'round
But I'm stuck here on this ground
The weight of expectations like chains around
Trying to break free but it's hard to be found
I walk through the city streets
The noise is loud but my heart's so weak
People pass by they don't see
The weight I carry silently
Carry the weight through the stormy days
The pain and the sorrow they're here to stay
But I won't give in I'll find my way
Carry the weight come what may
There are memories that haunt
Like ghosts in the dark they won't be taunted
The mistakes that I've made
Are like thorns that never fade
The weight of the past it's a heavy load
Dragging me down like an anchor in the road
But I know I've got to move on
Even if it means walking alone
I look up at the stars above
Hoping for a sign a little bit of love
The weight on my shoulders it's so hard to shove
But I'll keep on with a heart full of love
In the darkest hour when all seems lost
I'll hold on tight at any cost
The weight may be heavy but my spirit's strong
I'll carry it all until I belong
Carry the weight through the stormy days
The pain and the sorrow they're here to stay
But I won't give in I'll find my way
Carry the weight come what may
As the dawn breaks through the night
I'll face the weight with all my might
The journey's long but I'll carry on
Carry the weight until I'm home
