Weight of the World Songtext
von Clay Aiken

Has anybody else but me ever felt this way before
Like the world is spinning much too fast
And you′re falling through the floor

Struck by lightning, it's so frightening
When the morning feels like war
Unbreakable
(Don′t you wish you were?)
Unbreakable

So when you fall down, down, down
Don't get down on you, don't you know that
Everybody gets down, down, down
Why you trying to carry the weight of the world?

Some folks say that we′ve been blessed
And I know deep down they′re right
But when you're feeling cold, alone and desperate
And can′t get through the night


It seems the only time you test your wings
You're crashing through the sky
Unbreakable
(Don′t you wish you were?)
Unbreakable

So when you fall down, down, down
Don't get down on you, don′t you know that
Everybody gets down, down, down
Why you trying to carry the weight of the world?

Has anybody else but me ever felt this way before?

So when you fall down, down, down
Don't get down on you, don't you know that
Everybody gets down, down, down
Why are you trying to carry the weight of the world?

(Down, down, down)
Don′t get down on you, don′t you know that
Everybody gets down
(Down, down, down)
Why are you trying to carry the weight of the world?

I know it's hard to see from where you were right now
I know it′s hard to breathe, just let the world go round
And round, round, round
Why are you trying to carry the weight of the world?
(Down, down, down)
