Hearts will burn come what may

With lessons learned along the way

To free myself I make a choice

Just to be heard I lose my voice



Finding strength in solitude

I fight to fly with much to prove

Is this the way it's meant to be?

I risk it all I will not fall



[Chorus]

Carry the weight of the world

On my shoulders

Rise to the challenge I set myself



[Solo]



Salvation waits without reprieve

I'm on a razor's edge and it cuts my feet

As good as life will ever get

I wish that I could give it up and go home



"The blood drawn from the Atlas Stone

It draws a path from hell to home"



Fight to survive

Succumb to the path

Conquer the fear and nothing will fail

The quest to define this strunggle of mine

Gravity defied

I climb beyond heights



[Chorus]

Carry the weight of the world

On my shoulders

Rise to the challenge I set myself



[Solo]



Shadows of doubt creep into the light

A glimmer of hope never out of sight



Out of sight



Paralyzed under supressive fire

Holding firm against a thin red line



Out of mind



Shadows of doubt creep into the light

A glimmer of hope never out of sight



Out of sight



Paralyzed under supressive fire

Holding firm against a thin red line



Out of mind



Carry the weight of the world

Rise to the challenge I set myself



[Chorus]

Carry the weight of the world

On my shoulders

Rise to the challenge I set myself
