  • Here's the weight of the world on my shoulders
    Here's the weight of the world on my shoulders
    On my shoulders

    All alone, I pierce the chain
    And on and on, the sting remains
    And dying eyes consume me now
    The voice inside, screams out loud

    I am focused on what I am after
    The key to the next open chapter

    'Cause I found a way
    To steal the sun from the sky
    Long live that day
    That I decided to fly from the inside

    Every day a new deception
    Pick your scene and take direction
    And on and on, I search to connect
    But I don't wear a mask and I have no regrets

    I am focused on what I am after
    The key to the next open chapter

    'Cause I found a way
    To steal the sun from the sky
    Long live that day
    That I decided to fly from the inside

    I can't escape the pain, I can't control the rage
    Sometimes I think that I'm gonna go insane
    I'm not against what's right
    I'm not for what's wrong
    I'm just making my way and I'm gone

    Here's the weight of the world on my shoulders

    'Cause I found a way
    To steal the sun from the sky
    Long live that day
    That I decided to fly from the inside
    That I decided to fly from the inside
    That I decided to fly from the inside Writer/s: Bob Marlette, Brent Smith
