lyrics
Where do these tears come from
Streaming down your cheeks?
Worries mount to a sum
Piled high these past weeks
You wonder do you belong
In a rowboat with leaks?
Too much ballast brought on
Onto the deck bilge seeps.
It’s the weight of it all
(Welling up inside)
The weight of it all
(Like your best friend just died)
The weight of it all
(Pushing against the tide)
The weight of it all
(Because you know that she lied)
Where do these tears come from?
You try to wipe them all back
Wish you knew the right psalm
Pray for peace you now lack
Chop and currents are strong
Fearing a panic attack
Rowing through rain is so wrong
The hull is showing a crack
It’s the weight of it all
(Welling up inside)
The weight of it all
(Like your best friend just died)
The weight of it all
(Pushing against the tide)
The weight of it all
(You just found out that she lied)
Where do these tears come from?
Her hair and clothes soaked wet
Soon you’ll go on the run
But there is work to do yet
Hurry up, the sun comes
No goodbyes, no regret
Water fills up her lungs
Rocks pull her down to her bed
It’s the weight of it all
(Welling up inside)
The weight of it all
(Like your best friend just died)
The weight of it all
(Pushing against the tide)
The weight of it all
(Deny it? Yeah, she tried)
