lyrics

Heavy Light

i've been holding back for so long
i've been white-knuckle holding on
been losing sleep trying to stay awake
struggling to find some peace in this dark age

and i'm so tired
oh so tired
but my love tells me to keep up the fight
i wonder what's the use sometimes
it's a heavy light

i've never been to heaven but i caught a glimpse
i've been looking for the way back ever since
feeling homesick and weary, like i'm doing time
refuse to give in halfway to the end of the line

and i'm so tired
and i don't mean sleepy
i carry it around all day and night
try to aim it straight, true and right
it's a heavy light

i've been waiting around for such a long time
trying to pass thru this fear of mine
been getting lost trying to find my way
searching for some truth in this dark age
