Dar Williams - Weight of the World lyrics

You wanna take it off It's the weight of the world You want to set it free Just for today Can't always be the one To heal everything And the weight of the world Was never yours to keep You can spend so many days Trying to make the darkness go away But it's the weight of the world It's the curse of the worldly ways Can't keep it inside So go on just let it out It's the weight of the world If you ever had a doubt You wanna take it off ‘Cause it makes your body hurt It's the weight of the world It was never really yours Can't keep it inside Oh, you know you gotta set it free ‘Cause the weight of the world Was never yours to keep
