Jerry Axson - The Weight of Your Beauty Lyrics

The weight of your beauty bares down on me
Like I am under water
At the deepest point in the sea
The weight of your beauty bares down on me
The light of your love cast over me
Because I am of the darkness
And I'm far too blind to see
The light of your love cast over me

I wake up every morning
I hold my weary head
Shake the demons off my skin
And drag myself from bed
I walk outside of my front door
Into a troubled world
And from my hand I make a fist
Within that fist forms a perfect pearl

The measure of your promise stands over me
Hidden in your shadow
Waiting patiently
A measure of your promise stands over me
You see the hope I see the hopelessness
Forever are you forgiving
I weigh the cost of forgiveness
You find the hope I'm lost to hopelessness
