Lyrics
0:14What I swear I know your face I wish I knew your name
0:20I wish I could take you by the hand
0:26If I could name it if I could just explain it
0:31If I could only help you help you understand
0:41Where I can I can see that you're hurting
0:45Weighed down like a beast of burden
0:49About to break your back God only
0:53Knows that you're human
0:55So what are they trying to do then believe me
0:59They don't understand
1:04That you have the weight of the world today
1:08On your it's on your back
1:13A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back
1:19It's gonna drag you down
1:23You know it just can't last just can't
1:28You know it just can't last
1:33You know it just can't last
1:36Just can't
1:38You know it just can't last
1:44They thought they could use you
1:47Push you down and abuse you
1:50And what's so sad is you've
1:54Decided to hide all your feelings
1:56Got more pain than you can deal
1:59With but ask yourself how can this last
2:04I know you have the weight of the world
2:09Today on your it's on your back
2:15A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back
2:21It's gonna drag you down
2:24You know it just can't last just can't
2:29You know it just can't last
2:34You know it just can't last
2:37Just can't
2:39You know it just can't last
2:44You know it just can't last
2:47Just can't
2:49You know it just can't last
2:54You know it just can't last
2:57Just can't
2:58You know it just can't last
3:03You know it just can't last
3:07Just can't
3:08You know it just can't last
3:13You know it just can't last
What I swear I know your face I wish I knew your name I wish I could take you by the hand If I could name it if I could just explain it If I could only help you help you understand Where I can I can see that you're hurting Weighed down like a beast of burden About to break your back God only Knows that you're human So what are they trying to do then believe me They don't understand That you have the weight of the world today On your it's on your back A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back It's gonna drag you down You know it just can't last just can't You know it just can't last You know it just can't last Just can't You know it just can't last They thought they could use you Push you down and abuse you And what's so sad is you've Decided to hide all your feelings Got more pain than you can deal With but ask yourself how can this last I know you have the weight of the world Today on your it's on your back A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back It's gonna drag you down You know it just can't last just can't You know it just can't last You know it just can't last Just can't You know it just can't last You know it just can't last Just can't You know it just can't last You know it just can't last Just can't You know it just can't last You know it just can't last Just can't You know it just can't last You know it just can't last
