lyrics

Heliotropism (Leaning Toward the Light)

Painted over the rust
But it still shows
It still shows
I got nothing but time on my hands
And this heavy load
Heavy load

Sure could use someone to walk beside me now
So pull up a stool & help me talk this out

(Chorus)
I’m walking down this road
Carrying more weight than I can hold
(I don’t ) always see things in black & white
But I assure you that I am leaning toward the light
Carrying more weight than I can hold alone

Covering over the scar
I try to hide
Try so hard to hide
(Failed more) times than I can count
But I have tried
Lord knows I’ve tried

Sure could use someone to walk beside me now
So pull up a stool & help me talk this out

(Chorus minus last line, then chorus again)
