• Let the pain begin
    Let the heavy air fill my lungs today
    I don't want to run from it anymore.
    Let the weight of the world settle on my shoulders
    I'm tired of escaping from its dependancy

    I don't mind of you lean on me some more
    Your wondering heart needs a home
    And I know you don't want me to hurt
    But I don't want you to either

    So let the dust build up on me
    The wind will one day lessen it
    And I'll be just fine, you watch me do this
    You watch me take these bullets for you all

    My umbrella has holes, and broken wires
    And the sky just wants to pour
    The rain clouds have to go somewhere
    So let them follow after me

    This well trodden path is the one I'm restricted too
    Its something I know will be safe
    The least painful thing through it all
    Is knowing it has to end one day

    So let the heavy air fill my lungs today
    I don't want to run from it anymore.
    And let the weight of the world settle on my shoulders
    I'm tired of escaping from its dependancy.
