The Girl With The Weight Of The World In Her Hands - Indigo Girls[00:00:00]

She won't recover from her losses[00:00:14]

She's not chosen this path[00:00:20]

But she watches who it crosses[00:00:24]

Maybe move to the right[00:00:28]

Maybe move to the left[00:00:31]

So we can all see her pain she wears[00:00:35]

Like a banner on her chest[00:00:39]

And we all say it's sad[00:00:43]

And we think it's a shame[00:00:46]

And she's called to our attention[00:00:49]

But we do not call her name[00:00:54]

The girl with the weight[00:00:58]

Of the world in her hands[00:01:01]

Cause we're busy with our happiness[00:01:09]

And busy with our plans[00:01:14]

I wonder if alone she wants it[00:01:17]

Taken from her hands[00:01:21]

But if things didn't keep getting harder[00:01:24]

She might miss her sacred chance[00:01:31]

To go a consecrated martyr[00:01:34]

The girl with the weight[00:01:39]

Of the world in her hands[00:01:42]

I wonder which saint[00:01:48]

That lives inside a bead[00:01:51]

Will grant her consolation[00:01:55]

When she counts upon her need[00:01:58]

It makes us all angry[00:02:02]

Though we feign to care[00:02:05]

But who will be the scale[00:02:09]

To weigh the cross she has to bear[00:02:13]

The girl with the weight[00:02:17]

Of the world in her hands[00:02:20]

Is the glass half full or empty[00:02:29]

I ask her as I fill it[00:02:33]

She said it doesn't really matter[00:02:36]

Pretty soon you're bound to spill it[00:02:40]

With the half logic language[00:02:43]

Of the sermon she delivers[00:02:47]

And the way she smiles so knowingly[00:02:50]

At me gives me the shivers[00:02:54]

I pull the blanket higher[00:02:58]

When I'm finally safe at home[00:03:02]

And she'll take a hundred with her[00:03:05]

But she always sleeps alone[00:03:09]

The girl with the weight[00:03:13]

Of the world in her hands[00:03:17]

I wonder which saint[00:03:22]

That lives inside a bead[00:03:25]

Will grant her consolation[00:03:29]

When she counts upon her need[00:03:33]

It makes us all angry[00:03:36]

Though we feign to care[00:03:39]

But who will be the scale[00:03:43]

To weigh the cross she has to bear[00:03:47]

The girl with the weight[00:03:51]

Of the world in her hands[00:03:55]
