There was a time when I believed I could do anything, But since then, time's gone by, and in came reality. My body's weak; it just cannot take the strain. The pressure is much too high; I can't stand the pain. Chorus: I can't carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. I can't carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. There are some things I just can't carry, no matter what I do. And if you won't realize this, then I’ll have to unload you. The weight of ALL your problems [is] just too heavy for me. I must carry troubles of my own or can't you see. [Chorus] [Interlude] Chorus Reprise: I can't carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. (No, No, No!) I can't carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. (I cannot do it!) I can't carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. (It's much too heavy!) I can't carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. (Please, someone take it from me!) I can’t carry the Weight of the World on my shoulders. |
