Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2000

lyrics

here's to all you ragged ones and torn
some of us are waiting here a lifetime to be born
there are some things you will save
ah but most we'll cast away
bearing the load bearing the load

stories in your face
well they use no words at all
my cadences they're all car crashed
on the retaining wall
and there are no graveyards
we know better than our own
bearing the load bearing the load

turn out on the highway
yeah and it's never what it seems
just what was that
tugging at your sleeve
prayers slip through the fan blades
or they open every door
bearing the load bearing the load
