Weight

It's not going to be
stars and sunshine
all the time, baby

I weigh as much as you do
so let's do this

If you can weather my storm
and still make it home
our home
I'm game
for a life of what life brings

And with me
you will visit their grave
but not know how much
they meant
and yet you have all your memories, too
with what all those others meant to you
and I will never touch it
a veil covers it

Yet,
there will never be
another you and me
together to weather
a life with what life brings

Years upon us
into the unknown
under the arc of sky
and our dreams
fair and unfair
together to weather
our life with what life brings
