The Weight Of The Sky

 Track 5: "The Weight Of The Sky"

(Verse 1)

I’ve been walking this road with no end in sight,

Carrying the world through the endless night.

The weight on my shoulders, it pulls me down,

A crown made of thorns that I can’t take off now.

(Pre-Chorus)

They say strength is found in the darkest of days,

But I’m drowning in pressure, lost in the haze.

I’ve tried to stand tall, tried to fly so high,

But the sky’s come crashing, can’t escape the sky.

(Chorus)

The weight of the sky is crushing my soul,

I’m trying to breathe, but I’m losing control.

I’ve carried the burden for far too long,

Now I’m breaking apart, just trying to hold on.

(Verse 2)

I’ve been told that I’m strong, that I’m built to survive,

But it feels like I’m dying, just barely alive.

I’ve worn all the armor, I've fought every fight,

But there’s no victory in this endless night.

(Pre-Chorus)

They say strength is found in the darkest of days,

But I’m drowning in pressure, lost in the haze.

I’ve tried to stand tall, tried to fly so high,

But the sky’s come crashing, can’t escape the sky.

(Chorus)

The weight of the sky is crushing my soul,

I’m trying to breathe, but I’m losing control.

I’ve carried the burden for far too long,

Now I’m breaking apart, just trying to hold on.

(Bridge)

I’ve been searching for a way to set it down,

But every step I take just brings me back around.

The sky keeps falling, and I can’t outrun,

The weight of the world that I thought I’d won.

(Chorus)

The weight of the sky is crushing my soul,

I’m trying to breathe, but I’m losing control.

I’ve carried the burden for far too long,

Now I’m breaking apart, just trying to hold on.

(Outro)

So I’ll let go of the sky, let the pieces fall,

Maybe that’s the answer, after all.

If I’m meant to fly, I’ll rise from the ground,

But first, I need to lay this weight down.
