with the weight of the world on your shoulders
it's no wonder the sky is cast over
up ahead in the distance the shadows awake
as they approach many lives they will take

and it takes you down
and it wears me out

but the sun will rise over us
and wash away all those yesterdays before

in its place there's an end to the madness
an escape from the fear and the sadness
up ahead in the distance daylight will break
a new hope in this fight we will make

let the light shine down
all that was lost is found again

but the sun will rise over us
and wash away all those yesterdays
the sun will rise over us
and wash away all those years of pain

let go
so let go
