Another night, wide awake
Swimming around all my mistakes
Don't know how or why they came
Cause it's never quite the same
Memories, like fallen leaves
Singing a six-string symphony
Push me down, I'm falling down
But I'm still trying
Time flies by
And searching for the better life can seem out of reach
When you've got nothing to call your own
Carry your weight
Still awake, still can't sleep
I'm crippled now, I can't compete
Crooked ties selling lies
Don't know how much I can take
Another day, another week
Found the paddle, lost the creek
It's so hard, it's just so hard
But I'm still trying
Time flies by
And searching for the better life can seem out of reach
When you've got nothing to call your own
Carry your weight
And by the fire where I left the best of me, still remains
A living reminder that couldn't die there, burning all my memories
Cause I am defiant, not reliant, I was the last one left to see
That I've been here before
Time flies by
And searching for the better life can seem out of reach
When you've got nothing to call your own
Carry your weight, oh yea
When you've got nothing
Carry your weight
