YOUNG GUNS A continent of doubt weighs heavy on my mind How long can my brittle bones bend? Before they yield and snap I don't wanna know 'Cause I'm so scared It's not gonna get easier than this 'Cause it's too much to bear, my darling The weight of the world And I would carry it for you But please don't ask me too 'Cause the weight of the world Is a burden I can't bear Maybe it's gravity That pulls her to my chest Not the fear that she is the source of what little strength I've got left
I don't wanna know 'cause I'm so scared It's not gonna get easier than this 'Cause it's too much to bear, my darling The weight of the world And I would carry it for you But please don't ask me too 'Cause the weight of the world Is a burden I can't bear My horizon lies a jagged line Oh I can clearly see The mountains I've yet to climb I'll get there if it k**s me
