Weight

Well I've a hundred years to go from here she said

And I've just escaped a hundred fears

I feel old far far too soon she said

I've got a hundred years upon my head

And I've got a thousand youth following me she said

And I've got a thousand saviors to be

I forget myself a thousand times she said

I've got my own thousand dreams to find

Well I've two hundred years to go from here he said

And I've turned back two hundred fears

Yet I feel ready ready for more he said

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head

Once I had two thousand friends he said

There after followed two thousand more

Four thousand burdens weighed me well

But they were eight thousand hands there when I fell

But should I fall I'll fall alone she said

A woman is nothing if not on her own

I'd rather be one ready to fly

I'll live by my freedom 'til the day I die

But where there's one there's probably two he said

Rarely is there a me without a you

Humanity is a supporting chain he said

A self imposed weight is upon your head

I've heard it all a million times before she said

And I expect there'll be a million more

A million to one I'd bet to see

You've told this to a million girls like me

But I've two hundred years to go from here he said

He said not turn back two hundred fears

Yet I feel ready ready for more he said

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head

Wisdom weighs nothing upon my head
