lyrics

I’ve heard about this weight. Can’t wait to get it off my chest. I can’t live off shallow breath. I was born, but not for this. I hope to sleep it off. It greets me every morning. It rises with the sun. It pervades. It’s every e-mail that I send, every assignment; I don’t have time. One thousand pounds of paper, one thousand reasons to leave. I’ve heard every reassurance, every dull redundance. Problems can’t be run from. Decisions can’t be undone. You see, the sky opened up, emptied clouds onto hills. Got swept up in the descending mud. I can’t see a bottom and I can’t seem to stop it. There’s a realization in the pit of my stomach, a realization I can’t seem to quiet: There’s no easy way out. There’s no way out. And if we say it out loud, then we say it out loud. I don’t have time. (Shay)
