A Heaviness Not Meant For Me

I'm tired of change
and tired of waiting for change to come
So I've been praying that my peace won't fall away from me 
I came of age and felt my answers come undone  
And soon erase all of the certainty I once believed 

Let me hold on
Though I've got no way to carry
all the weight that's been placed on 
Let me hold on for one more mile 
For one more mile 

To keep you safe
I took your weight up as my own
For I could carry both our burdens - but it weakened me
I'm not ashamed nor am afraid of all my fears 
But I can't take the blame for half the scars that made you leave 
and let you feel like you were justified in everything; 
for I'd grown broken by a heaviness not meant for me

Let me hold on
Though I've got no strength to carry
all the weight that's been placed on 
Let me hold on for one more mile 
For one more mile
