Weight Of Days
Miguel Angel Oroyo Perez
Bills pile up like autumn leaves
Can't catch my breath, can't find reprieve
Clock keeps ticking, time won't bend
When will this pressure ever end?
Weight on my shoulders
Growing bolder
Every morning brings the same old ache
I'm carrying the weight of days
Lost in this endless maze
Can't find my way back home
Feeling so alone
Oh, the weight keeps pulling me down
Down, down, down
(La, la, la, la)
Traffic jam and deadlines loom
Empty coffee cup, fluorescent gloom
Same four walls, same worried thoughts
Fighting battles that can't be fought
Tension building
Never yielding
Every breath feels like a borrowed thing
I'm carrying the weight of days
Lost in this endless maze
Can't find my way back home
Feeling so alone
Oh, the weight keeps pulling me down
Down, down, down
(Mmm, mmm)
But maybe there's a morning
When the burden starts to lift
Maybe there's a reason
For this heavy, heavy gift
I'm carrying the weight of days
But I'll find another way
Gonna make it back home
Won't face this alone
Though the weight keeps pulling me down
I won't drown, won't drown
(Oh, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, la)
(Weight won't define me)
(La, la, la, la, la)
(Time to break free)
Breathe in the silence
Find some peace
Let the worry
Finally cease
Tomorrow's burden
Can wait its turn
Tonight I'll rest
Tonight I'll learn
I'm done carrying the weight of days
Found my way out of the maze
I can make it back home
I'm not alone
Though the weight tried pulling me down
I stand my ground, stand my ground
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(La, la, la la)
Bills still pile like autumn leaves
But now I've learned to just
Breathe
