Shoulders

(album: Mercy - 2021)

Working down my third cup of coffee
Waiting on the grey to burn away
Seems the world outside my window is getting colder
Pray for my shoulders

I finally just stopped turning on the TV
All it ever does is bring me down
Til this old wicked world starts turning slower
Pray for my shoulders

Heaven only knows
How time can take its toll
Lay burdens on a soul along the way
The weight can hang so heavy
It gets harder standing steady
And holding on gets tougher everyday
So tonight when you get on your knees won't you pray
For my shoulders

Heaven only knows
How time can take its toll
Lay burdens on a soul along the way
Yeah the weight can hang so heavy
It gets harder standing steady
And holding on gets tougher everyday
So tonight when you get on your knees won't you pray
Yeah tonight when you get on your knees won't you pray

Working down my third cup of coffee
Waiting on the grey to burn away
