lyrics
Weight of the World
It was easier when we were young
And the world revolved around ourselves
Around our dreams
I remember well the setting sun
And the ocean’s waves
Swimming out, after a long day
But now - we feel the weight of the world now
We feel the urgency
I thought I could stay fixed in one place
But that’s not enough in these days
It was easier when word spread
Over days not seconds
Must disconnect from time to time
I remember well that other world
Where we could hide
So unaware of the collective sigh
But now - we feel the weight of the world now
We feel the urgency
I thought I could stay fixed in one place
But that’s not enough in these days
Give me strength to be me now
Give me courage to facilitate
Give me language to be heard
Give me challenges that I can face
I will give all of myself
I will give to our futures
I will give and receive love
I will and I’ll give and I’ll give
Now - we feel the weight of the world now
We feel the urgency
I thought I could stay fixed in one place
But that’s not enough in these days
Give me strength to be me now
Give me courage to facilitate
Give me language to be heard
Give me challenges that I can face
I will give all of myself
I will give to our futures
I will give and receive love
I will and I’ll give and I’ll give
It was easier when we were young
And the world revolved around ourselves
Around our dreams
I remember well the setting sun
And the ocean’s waves
Swimming out, after a long day
But now - we feel the weight of the world now
We feel the urgency
I thought I could stay fixed in one place
But that’s not enough in these days
It was easier when word spread
Over days not seconds
Must disconnect from time to time
I remember well that other world
Where we could hide
So unaware of the collective sigh
But now - we feel the weight of the world now
We feel the urgency
I thought I could stay fixed in one place
But that’s not enough in these days
Give me strength to be me now
Give me courage to facilitate
Give me language to be heard
Give me challenges that I can face
I will give all of myself
I will give to our futures
I will give and receive love
I will and I’ll give and I’ll give
Now - we feel the weight of the world now
We feel the urgency
I thought I could stay fixed in one place
But that’s not enough in these days
Give me strength to be me now
Give me courage to facilitate
Give me language to be heard
Give me challenges that I can face
I will give all of myself
I will give to our futures
I will give and receive love
I will and I’ll give and I’ll give
