Don't Rest Your Weight on Me Now

You say that I’ve strayed from the road I walked as a child
You say that my youth and my heart haven’t chosen what’s right
Don’t tell me I’m aimless
Cause I ain’t gonna fight
You bury your faith in the book you clutch in the dark
You keep praying I’ll hear every word and it tears you apart
Don’t tell me I’m faithless
Cause I ain’t gonna fight
We both know a place
Where we know who we are
Don’t rest your weight on me now
You’re not gonna change me by putting me down
My faith lies deep in the ground
If Jesus exists he don’t live in the pages we write
He’d say put down your books and come follow me out in the light
Don’t me I’m crazy
Cause I ain’t gonna fight
We both want to hold on
To what peace we can find
Don’t rest your weight on me now
You’re not gonna change me by putting me down
My faith lies deep in the ground
My faith lies deep in the ground
