The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We've all of us carried our load

Dull and young and bright and old

But thieves and liars rule everything we know

And thieves and liars rule everything that grows

All we want is what we're owed

We've all of us carried this load

Fucking high and awful low

We've all of us carried this load

God, we've tried, how much we've tried

Drunk and high, we've seen the Sun rise

Many sleepless nights we've seen

The Sun collapsed on everything

It's only love that's worth to sing

These bells are broke, but still they ring

Love and love's the only thing

Shut up awhile the birds are singing

God, we've tried, how much we've tried

Drunk and high, we've seen the Sun rise

Many sleepless nights we've seen

The Sun on top of everything

Love is all that's worth to sing

We're deep in it and still we bring

The bells are broke, but still they ring

The Sun on top of everything

Lord, let my son live long enough

To see that mountain torn down

Lord, let my son live long enough

To see that mountain torn down

Lord, let my son live long enough

To see that mountain torn down
