Weight Off My Back

Liner Notes
The music came first, and it seemed a weighty sort of song. So that's where the lyrics came from. #rock
Lyrics
Lift this weight from my back I wish to be burdened no more I'm crushed by the curse of caring too much And now I want to even the score
So lift this weight from my back I want to be freed from this grind And feel the grass between my toes again Without a care in my mind
Just this once, can I catch a break? I'm sick of the fruitless toil Where nothing works unless I do it myself And a careless world is my foil
Is there anyone to carry this weight? I've been here alone too long And nothing that I do seems to leave a mark Just the feeling I've been wronged
Amen to that. That line "Just this once, can I catch a break?" just hits home so hard this year.
