Carried

Oh, tell me how to let it go Just like this In the medicated bliss Is it still a terrifying overload A stultifying open road? If I pay your ferry boat Will you carry my load? And I'll paint all the ways in which I've failed Set my glories alight And my still fight you tooth and nail, But my youth is screaming The door never really shuts Despite agoraphobic ifs and buts You're close to going through Will you carry me too? And I know that I have it all in the same way as you do, But we all take a unique fall in the final scene To a violin string Or a crashing train We all need somebody to teach us How to be carried Oh, do you see Eden through the gates? Who has the list? Has this all been uber fate? Is every move a known footprint fossilized A rare remake realized? And if you fall too soon I'll carry you And I know that I have it all in the same way as you do, But we all take a unique fall in the final scene To a violin string Or a crashing train In the pounding rain And the thunder rolls in And the vertigo comes and goes And comes and goes and comes We each need somebody to teach us How to be carried
