This song has always been one of my favorites, for some reason. It wasn't a single. We didn't really play it in concert (just once, that I can remember). It rarely stuck out to people as a "strong" song off of the album, but I always liked it. I think the recording (with the preceeding *mess-up*) is very cool. I always dug the really large 'tom' drums at the beginning *AND* the bridge remains one of my personal favorites!



Lyrically this song is pretty straight forward, I think. It talks about our usual difficulties, that is, being "worn out" and dealing with a new day ('is it daybreak'). The chorus wraps up the essence of the problem, "i can't hold this weight upon my shoulders anymore...". What this song does very differently is it wraps up the solution in the bridge... in (4) short lines... "so I.... give all.... to You.... my God". That's it. Enough said. 





is it daybreak? i'm sure

and you're feeling weary

there is so much, i know

it's just got to end soon



well, i can't hold this weight

upon my shoulders anymore

my bones are breaking

hands are shaking

with everything



are you worn out? i'm sure

not happy nearly

too far in such to know

you just have to break soon



well, i can't hold this weight

upon my shoulders anymore

my bones are breaking

hands are shaking

with everything



so i

give all

to you

my God



well, i can't hold this weight

upon my shoulders anymore

my bones are breaking

hands are shaking

with everything



well, i can't hold this weight

upon my shoulders anymore

my bones are breaking

my bones are breaking

my bones are breaking

my bones are breaking
