Weight of the World - Dar Williams

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
