Weight of the World
Navigating the Weight of the World: Finding Light in Troubled Times
Lyrics
And what about the times you did your best
Reflecting on the times when you put forth your best effort
To assuage my troubled soul
Attempting to ease my troubled soul
What happened to me
Pondering the changes or challenges in oneself
What happened to you
Questioning changes or challenges in the other person
What was it that you said would see us through
Recalling promises or assurances made to overcome difficulties
I want to know how to feel something real
Expressing a desire to experience genuine emotions
And I will try no more to run
Committing to stop avoiding or escaping from issues
All this pressure getting closer
Feeling overwhelmed by increasing pressure
And it seems like I've been here before
Sensing a familiarity with the current challenging situation
Time on my hands
Having idle time to contemplate
Weight of the world
Bearing the weight of the world's problems
Laid bare my soul
Revealing one's innermost self or vulnerabilities
As I lose control
Experiencing a loss of control
Run away
Escaping from the challenges or responsibilities
You can retrace those steps and find your way once more
Encouraging a return to a path of self-discovery and resolution
I'll wait
Patiently waiting for a positive change
Believe in yourself as the cruel world closes in
Encouraging self-belief despite the harsh realities
Take my hand
Offering support and friendship
I'll be a friend for you this weight you bare alone
Being there for someone facing a heavy burden alone
One day
Expressing hope for a brighter future
The light I know will illuminate your heart
Anticipating positive change and enlightenment
