With such a heavy heart
I dust off and carry forth
The weight of my world
The weight of the entire earth

          Holds me by the ankles
          By the wrists and neck
          Baring down on all I am
          Waiting for me to break

                   The harder I try to fight
                   The tighter the suffocating grip
                   Even some good days
                   I wonder if I'm sick

                            Such a sad little thing
                            Just want to spread smiles
                            Maybe that's the reason why
                            I go through so many trials
The first two stanzas are more of 'near' rhymes than actual rhymes I suppose. Oh well.
