Take the Weight

Drop

Let the tide come take the weight

Let the tide come take the weight

Verse 1

I woke to rain against the glass

The kettle cold the radio hissing

Something in me finally cracked

And I let the morning win

I drove past fields I never named

Past the tower past the turning

Pre-Chorus

And I felt it lift

Slowly the pressure gave

And I felt it lift

Like a wave I couldn't save

Chorus

I am letting go of what I carried

I am letting go

Every heavy thing I ever buried

I am letting go

Let it drift let it fade

Let the current have its way

I am letting go of what I carried

I am letting go

Drop

Let the tide come take the weight

Let the tide come take the weight

Verse 2

My father taught me how to stand

How to hold a thing together

But nobody showed me how to bend

How to loosen up the tether

So I'm learning in the rain

Learning slow and learning better

Pre-Chorus

And I feel it now

Something opening

And I feel it now

Like a tide coming in

Chorus

I am letting go of what I carried

I am letting go

Every heavy thing I ever buried

I am letting go

Let it drift let it fade

Let the current have its way

I am letting go of what I carried

I am letting go

Bridge

Softer now

Quieter now

I don't need to hold it all

Softer now

Quieter now

I don't need to hold it all

Chorus

I am letting go of what I carried

I am letting go

Every heavy thing I ever buried

I am letting go

Let it drift let it fade

Let the current have its way

I am letting go of what I carried

I am letting go

Drop

Let the tide come take the weight

Let the tide come take the weight
