Carry my water

Will you carry my future?
Will you carry my pride?
Will you carry my water, caught up in the tide?
 
Will you carry my heartbreak?
Will you carry the sky?
Will you carry the day as I watch it go by?
Will you carry my mistakes?
Will you carry my lies?
My false assertions? My alibis?
 
My shoulders are weakened, my knees, they don’t hold.
I can’t really look at myself, I look feeble, I look old.
My strength is waning, I’ve lost all my fight.
I might make it through the day, but I’m not sure of the night.
 
Will you carry my future?
Will you carry my pride?
Will you carry my water, caught up in the tide?
Will you carry my dreams?
Will you carry my smile?
It might be fragile I’ve not used it in a while.
 
I’m rattled and antsy, I can’t get out of my own way.
I’m stalled on the highway and here I might stay.
I feel forgotten; a lost soul at best.
 I’m exhausted and flustered I just need a rest.
 
Can you carry my heart and put it back in place?
I lost it last night, I almost abandoned the race.
Can you carry my hopes that I might love again?
Will you carry my friendship and never let it end?
 
I’ll be there for you to carry the same,
 it’s real life we’re living, it’s no foolish game.
I’ll carry your misfortune and the blessings when they come.
I’ll be there for you as you’ve been for me, utterly fearsome.
 
Will you carry my future?
Will you carry my pride?
Will you carry my water, caught up in the tide?
