present (band) - balcony lyrics

[verse 1]
closed the door to the apartment
pulled out paper and pen
she wrote pages for her parents
’cause it made sense to her then

[chorus 1]
it’s the weight she carried
made it ours to bury
it’s the weight she carried
to the balcony
she hid signs to be discovered
left them hints to decipher
was she waiting to be pried?
how many times had she cried?
it’s thе weight she carried
madе it ours to bury
it’s the weight she carried
to the balcony

[verse 2]
for a moment, she was flying
she was finally free
in the air, her tears drying
an escape guaranteed
a decision so defining
she turned into debris
for a moment, she was free
[bridge]
do not stand at my grave and weep
i am not there, i do not sleep
i am a thousand winds that blow
i am the diamond glints on snow
i am the sunlight on ripened grain
i am the gentle autumn rain
when you awaken in the morning’s hush
i am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight
i am the soft stars that shine at night
do not stand at my grave and cry
i am not there, i did not die

[chorus 2]
it’s the weight she carried
carried
now, i shudder in the corner
(closed the door to the apartment)
waves of grief as my commander
(on the balcony)
not a chance for goodbye
how many times had she tried?

[outro]
it’s the weight she carried
to her grave
it’s the weight i carry
’cause i couldn’t save her
i couldn’t save
