lyrics

Walking through the shadows of my life
Be sure to stand tall
Once we thought that this was paradise
But I don’t see you at all

My grandmother said in her dying bed
Be sure to make it worth it
It took me way too long to know what she said
‘Cause I resisted
And I don’t know why, then she said…

Lay it down and take that everest
When the morning comes I’ll do the rest
Lay it down and take that everest
The weight of this world rests in the west

I laid a canvas at your feet for you to use
But we both destroyed it
I tried to paint a picture with your words
But you just ignored it

You know how it works
You know how it hurts
Standing in the same dirt

Lay it down and take that everest
When the morning comes I’ll do the rest
Lay it down and take that everest
The weight of this world rests in the west

Someone’s knocking at your door
Don’t answer it, I know what it’s for
You see the wind’s about to change for you man
Put a message inside your hand
An expression you understand before you go

Lay it down and take that everest
When the morning comes I’ll do the rest
Lay it down and take that everest
The weight of this world rests in the west
