The Weight on My Hands (النسخة 2)

Verse

Concrete cracks beneath my boots

Steam off streetlights in the frost

Five more hours before the break

Every hour weighs a hundred pounds of ache

Cold air cuts like iron wire

Knees gone numb but still I fire

Rope round wrist where sweat runs dry

Holding on till sunrise hits

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb the spine, slow and cold

Every heartbeat pulls me through the night

One more step before the break

Keep this grip until it's light

Chorus

The weight on my hands won't let me fall

Grip the dark like a man who stands tall

Hold the ache till morning calls

This is how we carry us all

Verse 2

Windows glowing amber haze

Sirens cut through frozen days

Breath comes fogging, thick and slow

Every muscle says no more to go

Shoes are wet but feet still drive

Chest is heavy with a father's pride

Nobody asks me how I stay

I just hold it till the light arrives

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb the spine, slow and cold

Every heartbeat pulls me through the night

One more step before the break

Keep this grip until it's light

Chorus

The weight on my hands won't let me fall

Grip the dark like a man who stands tall

Hold the ache till morning calls

This is how we carry us all

Bridge

Maybe one day I'll let go clean

But right now blood just running through the seams

So I clench it hard and keep my eyes on gold

The first light crawling up the sidewalk cold

Chorus

The weight on my hands won't let me fall

Grip the dark like a man who stands tall

Hold the ache till morning calls

This is how we carry us all
