| I cradle my father as he falls to his knees,
|
| he felt that burden of upset that always hangs over me.
|
| Even I know forever’s so long when life won’t wait.
|
| Subdued to the years for all our last of what’s left
|
| he said the judgement of sorrow will make a man of you yet,
|
| so I’ll be standing by whilst all along you waste away.
|
| It takes the courage to suffer he said you can’t even see,
|
| he saw the man stood before him that he
|
| once used to be, speak your mind, even if your voice starts to shake.
|
| I put my ears to the ground and listen out for the rain,
|
| I can hear the thunder call from memory lane
|
| As it all starts crumble, I still wonder what tomorrow will bring.
|
| So hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
|
| like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes.
|
| Just hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
|
| like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes…
|
| And try to forget. |
| I hear there’s presence of spirit when trying hard to believe
|
| but how can you put your faith in something you’ve never seen,
|
| cause when you die you just die,
|
| over everything said, will you lie to yourself or will you know that your…
|
| So hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
|
| like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes
|
| Just hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
|
| like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes…
|
| And try to forget. |
| Just try to forget.
|
| I know you’re trying to forget (I know you try to forget)
|
| I know you try to forget (Just try to forget)
|
| So close your eyes, embrace the coming of age,
|
| sing me back to sleep and just fucking forget. |
