Weight of Life

(Instrumental) Endless suffering, this world's a tomb The weight of life, a crushing doom Beneath the surface, a hidden pain A twisted fate, driving me insane Break, the chains that I carry, no man can bear this weight The lies, the chaos, the cries, I can no longer take! The weight of life, it pulls us down Into the depths, Where we wear the crown of self made thorns, of sorrow, of endless strife In this existence, a never-ending fight The weight of life, a burden shared In darkness we unite, despair we bear Through blood and tears, we carry on The taker of burdens, our battle song In the depths of despair, we're consumed by the light The weight of life, a burden we fight Through the fire and pain, we'll rise once again In the face of the storm, we'll never bend As the shadows grow long, and the darkness descends The weight of life, our souls it rends But we'll carry on, through the blood and the tears For the strength of our God, no one can withstand I won’t Bear this weight anymore The fear, the dread, the despair Banish it from my heart For Fear creates monsters from thin air Lead me to the resting place Near the heart of my God Before the cross my burdens fall down on the serpent from whom they came from. Crush the head of the snake, beneath your feet! In the depths of despair, we're consumed by the light The weight of life, a burden we fight Through the fire and pain, we'll rise once again In the face of the storm, we'll never… Bend On my knees, I shall stand
