The Time and the Weight
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.
Knowing from the start
Wouldn't have helped cause waiting is the hardest part
You blink and the moment's pass
All this time I've known
You blink and the moment's passed
All my life I've been waiting
All this time has been wasted
Waiting for it to start
The time and the weight is on me, it's on me
What's up ahead you can't see, you can't see
It's all right, it's all right, but it drives me crazy
Nothing here now, nothing here is gonna save me
Because the time and the weight is on me
Knowing you from a child
You ran free like you were born in the wild
You blink and the moments pass
All this time I've known
You blink and the moment's gone
All my life I've been waiting
All this time has been wasted
Waiting for it to start
The time and the weight is on me, it's on me
What's up ahead you can't see, you can't see
It's all right, it's all right, but it drives me crazy
Nothing here now, nothing here is gonna save me
Because the time and the weight is on me
