just can't last
I swear I know your face, I wish I knew your name I wish I could take you by the hand If I could name it If I could just explain it If I could only help you, help you understand I can see that you're hurting weighed down like a beast of burden about to break your back. God only knows that you're human So what are they trying to do then Believe me, they don't understand that you have the wieght of the world today It's on your back A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back It's gonna drag you down You know it just can't last, just can't You know it just can't last They thought they could use you Push you down and abuse you And what's so sad is you've decided to hide all your feelings Got more pain than you can deal with but ask yourself how can this last I know you have the weight of the world today It's on your back A heavy load like that is gonna hold you back It's gonna drag you down You know it just can't last, just can't You know it just can't last.
