Weight of the World

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.

I got my feet knocked off the ground

I got my head knocked off my feet

I tried to swallow all of the world

And now I've gotten in a little too deep

And now I'm falling towards the sky

I don't know how and I don't know why

But I got the weight of all the world

I better not let go of the rope

Oh what am I suppose to do?

Am I suppose to let go of all of you

Am I suppose to fall back to the sky

or keep on rising for a while

and she said

ohhhhhhhhh

ohhhhhhhh

ohhh ooooooooooooo

oohh ohhhhhh

I think im falling down

Right back to the very ground

I couldn't hold it anymore

I think that's what I was asking for

I think this might just hurt

Oh I don't see how I can change my hurt

I was carrying the weight of all the world

I think I'll get what I deserve

I got my feet knocked off the ground

I got my head knocked of my feet

I tried to swallow all of the world

And I think I got in a litlle too deep

I think you know where I have to go

I think you know what I deserve

Here comes the weight of all the world

and its coming straight for me
