It could be your southern drawl[00:00:38]

Or how you limp when you walk[00:00:41]

That makes[00:00:43]

Me want to say[00:00:45]

All those things I never could[00:00:48]

A school boy crush carved into wood[00:00:50]

That fades[00:00:52]

In the rain[00:00:55]

You were born in a baptist house[00:00:58]

With a rusty spoon inside your mouth[00:01:00]

The taste[00:01:02]

Didn't go away[00:01:04]

And when the sun comes peaking out[00:01:07]

You work until it goes back down[00:01:09]

The days[00:01:12]

Are all the same[00:01:14]

With a baby boy strapped to your hip[00:01:17]

And a tiny cut above your lip[00:01:19]

That states[00:01:21]

God doesn't save[00:01:23]

Everyone who buys his book[00:01:26]

Some of us Get overlooked[00:01:28]

In a way[00:01:31]

It's a shame[00:01:33]

But you still walk in his light[00:01:36]

And say the same words every night[00:01:38]

I pray the lord my soul to keep[00:01:40]

But what about the rest of me[00:01:43]

My faith[00:01:45]

Can't take the weight[00:01:49]

The summers came and left like fall[00:01:56]

Ten thankless years of working hard[00:01:58]

The school bell rings the kids come home[00:02:00]

But you still feel like you're alone[00:02:03]

Because your husband holds his whiskey glass[00:02:05]

Tighter than a hero's past[00:02:08]

You rip those black beads off your throat[00:02:10]

And swap them out for a knotted rope[00:02:12]

The end[00:02:15]

Is your only friend[00:02:18]

You use that final rush of blood[00:02:25]

To say the things you never could[00:02:27]

I pray the lord that you will see[00:02:29]

In my eyes bulge out and my body swing[00:02:31]

Because I now I finally understand[00:02:34]

That jesus is like every man[00:02:36]

He tells you want you want to hear[00:02:39]

Until you fall in love and he disappears[00:02:41]

My faith[00:02:44]

Couldn't take the weight[00:02:47]

When the weight of the world[00:02:53]

Falls square on your shoulders[00:02:55]

A pin prick or missed call[00:02:57]

Can somehow destroy you[00:03:00]

We all are victims of warped expectations[00:03:03]

When people can't save us we suddenly hate them[00:03:08]

So much[00:03:12]

In fact[00:03:15]

That we lose our grasp[00:03:17]

On reality the responsibility[00:03:19]

That we have to ourselves[00:03:24]

And everybody else[00:03:29]

When the weight of the world falls square on your shoulders[00:03:32]

A pin prick or missed call can somehow destroy you[00:03:36]

We all are victims of warped expectations[00:03:41]

When people can't save us[00:03:46]

We suddenly hate them[00:03:48]
