Shoulder

I don't like timing

Coz with us it's always off

But I've been patiently waiting

For it to come around

Same words, New reason

Can we be together whilst we're healing?

Patiently waiting

For you to let me down

But you won't coz you don't wanna hurt me

And I hope that we grow to be happy

Who you've lost can be found in your eyes

As you look at me and smile

At the gig on the first of October

And I'm not alone on your shoulder

There's so much weight up here

Your hurt, your fear

Your whispered trauma

I'm sipping lemonade through a straw

I hope it isn't a metaphor

And your back won't break

And one day we'll escape

The weight on your shoulder

I quite like vibing

With you alone like nothing else exists

My baby come and lift my pain with a kiss

Do I make it better?

Bob the builder we can fix it

We trade I love you

Create a home from the rubble

Together we shift our weight

On our first good day

Still scared that you'll crumble

But you won't coz you don't wanna hurt me

And I hope that we grow to be happy

Who you've lost can be found in your eyes

As you look at me and smile

But you won't coz you don't wanna hurt me

And I hope that we grow to be happy

Who you've lost can be found in your eyes

As you look at me and smile

At the gig on the first of October

And I'm not alone on your shoulder

There's so much weight up here

Your hurt, your fear

Your whispered trauma

I'm sipping lemonade through a straw

I hope it isn't a metaphor

And your back won't break

And one day we'll escape

The weight on your shoulder

I don't want you to break

I'll carry all the weight

No matter what it takes

Oh

I don't want you to break

I'll carry all the weight

No matter what it takes
