lyrics

You’ve got the weight of the world I see it there rest on your shoulders
Reaching for stars, gasping for air when buried by boulders

You never wanted to know you were alone and did what they told you
Lost in your words left in the cold teeth gnashing on old news

We were just biding our time watching the world looking to show her
Never believing the signs we couldn’t stand not wiser just older

I wanted so hard to help I tried to see I was not sure inside
Pulling myself from the edge forcing my fear falling for all their lies

You were already at war struggling to shout lost in your game
You battled for sympathy but you ran when it began to rain

I was still searching for truth sad worried songs I heard the wind sing
I can’t help you, no not with a damn thing

We stayed out all night
Looking for someone to fight
We just started swinging
And coming up empty

We were just learning to dance moving our feet wearing our old wounds
Our eyes burned by the sun we showed them all we played our own tunes

I thought we’d never give up we had a way we were invincible
But you wanted to stay determined but why your fate was unbreakable

We touched the stars and we saw the moon shadows just passed us by
Watching the sea and falling for you swept up with the raging tide

We all have come to witness the truth you just need to open your eyes and see
I can’t help you, no not with a damn thing

We stayed out all night
Looking for someone to fight
We just started swinging
And coming up empty

We stayed out all night
Looking for someone to fight
We just started swinging
And coming up empty

Why you so empty
You’re always so empty
God is so empty
Why you so

Oh oh oh oh
Oooohhhhhhh
Oooohhhhhhh
oohh
