Bear the Weight Lyrics by Exploring Birdsong

Dancing in the Face of Danger

2023

[Intro]
Strip me to my core
Close these vacant doors
Just to be sure
[Verse 1]
We've been hollowed out
Knees and heads bowed
Then drowned in our doubt
Lies come from their mouths
[Pre-Chorus]
Just you wait 'til the world falls apart
[Chorus]
We bear the weight
To defend the man
Who would fall in your place
At the hands
Of a king
Who is lost
[Verse 2]
See how we're bled dry?
The sky runs red tonight
Veins torn open wide
Alone is how we die
They consume
Blood spills from the open wound
Cut too deep to start to heal
The only thing we'll ever feel
Try to make the moment last
Even when they break your back
This might be the only time
You'll know you're alive
[Chorus]
We bear the weight
To defend the man
Who would fall in your place
At the hands
Of a king
Who is lost
[Bridge]
The view of the horizon
Must be nice from up inside
The ivory tower
So sit and find watching
Through eyes so blind that
Nothing ever could go wrong
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
We bear the weight
To defend the man
Who would fall in your place
At the hands
Of a king
Who is lost
We bear the weight (The view of the horizon)
To defend the man (Must be nice from up inside)
Who would fall in your place (The ivory tower)
At the hands (So sit and find watching)
Of a king (Through eyes so blind that)
Who is lost (Nothing ever could go wrong)
[Outro]
