The Weight

Bound by nature
Now eternal
On my shoulders made to hold
My empire fallen away
Head in my hands
And everyone knows
There's no other place to go

Take you time
Burn your one desire
Take my hand into the fire
I won't ever let you

Rest in either
Die immortal
I awaken steeped in gold
Far from heaven
Bound in chain
Held in my hands
A shadow below
There's no other place to go

Take your time
Burn your one desire
Take my hand into the fire
I won't ever let you

Turn to find
As the flame grows higher
Take my hand into the fire
I won't ever let you go

I withhold a soul denied a way
To let you go
And I know the rising tide
Lifts you up softly away from me
And I try to leave it all behind
And keep it far away from mine
And I show with everywhere I go
That I'll move time and tension
To let you know

Take your time
Burn your one desire
Take my hand into the fire
I won't ever let you go

Take it over
Take it all away
I know I never show
The strength to hold the weight
Take it over
Take it all away
I know I never show
The strength to hold the weight

Take it over
Take it all away
Take it over
Take it all away

Turn to find
As the flame grows higher
Take my hand into the fire
I won't ever let you go
