Verse 1:
My emotions stack up like a mounting debt
I try to hide them in a jar I keep
The way I feel is something I cannot explain
It hurts too much and takes away the pain Chorus:
Carrying around all this weight
Can’t seem to shake the slate
But if I keep my head up high
I know I’m gonna make it right Verse 2:
I see the clouds, they’re closing in
Maybe the darkness will start to dim
I take a deep breath and make a stand
Time to put this past behind me and begin again Chorus:
Carrying around all this weight
Can’t seem to shake the slate
But if I keep my head up high
I know I’m gonna make it right Bridge:
No, it’s not gonna be easy
But with a bit of faith I’ll see
That the light will come my way
At the end of every day Chorus:
Carrying around all this weight
Can’t seem to shake the slate
But if I keep my head up high
I know I’m gonna make it right
