lyrics
Would you clear the weight
Pressing down so hard on my chest
To clear my lungs
In hopes to revive a mourning son
Would you clear the weight
Pressing down
To clear my lungs
For the mourning son
Could you stop the flood gates
From crashing in
Tonight today
So we can mourn another way
Could you take back those lines
They stung like arrows to my head
Clear the weight
Pressing down
The eclipse of my life
Couldn’t block out the light more than you did
You stole the song from my throat
Muted my voice that sung every note
I’ll fight for every breath with open palms
Sing the chorus of muted swans
For the mourning son
Pressing down so hard on my chest
To clear my lungs
In hopes to revive a mourning son
Would you clear the weight
Pressing down
To clear my lungs
For the mourning son
Could you stop the flood gates
From crashing in
Tonight today
So we can mourn another way
Could you take back those lines
They stung like arrows to my head
Clear the weight
Pressing down
The eclipse of my life
Couldn’t block out the light more than you did
You stole the song from my throat
Muted my voice that sung every note
I’ll fight for every breath with open palms
Sing the chorus of muted swans
For the mourning son
