The weight

Ask me all about rejection
ask me all about disgrace
ask me all about repression
i won’t blink though it’s in my face
ask me when i learned to hide
and just how i got to keep it all inside
ask me why i built a wall
‘cause i’ve got no choice
i have to swallow it all
for you
i’m losing my faith
i’m choosing my fate
it’s so late now
i can’t bear the weight
tell me all about forgiveness
tell me all about remorse
tell me all about redemtion
i will learn to kneel in due course
tell me how you’ll set me free
with the sacrifices that you made for me
tell me you’ll bring down the walls
‘cause i’ve got no choice
i have to swallow it all
for you
tell me how you’ll set me free
with the sacrifices that you made for me
tell me how you’ll set me free
‘cause it’s so late
i can’t bear the weight
