carry this weight on
your shoulders
sift through pebbles by
my boulders
waves crash haplessly
at the shore
I'm still breathing
evermore,
evermore

I'll take the weight off
your shoulders
the world can wait while we
get older
I don't care if they
loose their smile
I've been waiting for
a long while
to see you smile

and they don't even need to know, oh
they don't even need to know, oh
grab me by my claws and horns
I would wait for you forevermore
forevermore

carry this secret
for all time
emotions crashing like
ocean's rhyme
sand is pouring
through these hands of mine
adoration
spanning so much time

I'll take the weight off
your shoulders
the world can wait while the
bark smolders
I don't care if they
waste their time
I've waited so long
to waste mine
come waste mine

and they don't even need to know, oh
they don't even need to know, oh
grab me by my claws and horns
I'll stay here forevermore,
forevermore,
forevermore
