The Weight of the World

THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD

Reality is indeed stressful

One reason so many people bail out

They would rather find their life blissful

Instead of dealing with problems and doubt

Children are lucky in that respect

Because dreamworld is where they reside

Their minds are filled with  illusions they pick

And that's their place to hide

As an adult we have a responsibility

To know what's going on

We remain tied in all probability

To bland standards from dusk until dawn

In times of turmoil some may shatter

And childhood seems an escape

Too short are those years that matter

And growing up is our only mistake

The weight of the world on our shoulders

Two feet planted firmly on the ground

It is the curse of our growing older

Some can never get up once they're down
