I'm at your back door

with the earth of a hundred nations in my skin

you won't recognize me

for the light in my eyes is strange

it was years ago, god knows

when you strained to tell me your whole truth

that you were not mine to save

that you could not change



would it be enough to go by

if we could sail on the wind in the dark

cut those chains in the middle of the night

that had you pulled apart

would it be enough to go by

if there's moonlight pulling the tide

would it be enough to live on

if my love could keep you alive



I've built a lot of castles

built a lot of blazing speed-of-light machines

but it doesn't matter, you know

they all crumble in the winds of change

so I turned back to breathing

I learned a few good reasons to cry

and I finally called home

praying you weren't out of range



carry the weight

I'll carry the weight of you, I swear

carry the weight

I'll carry the weight of you



so will you let me come in

the mosquitoes have found me

and they're crowding 'round my blood

at least offer me a drink

or a breaking of the ice

I'm wanting your anger

I only want to see if I can shake you out of sleep

and bring you out under this flooded sky

at any price



so carry the weight

carry the weight of me in your heart

carry the weight

carry the weight of me
