Heavyhearted World Lyrics - Childhood Home - Ben Harper

It's Christmas morning in the psych ward 

There's a flight risk today so a nurse guards the door 

There's a man in the corner who sounds just like me 

Rambling on about time square new years eve 

If i could only forget what I'm supposed to know 

If i could only keep from sinking so low 

Strapped me down and into the void i was hurled 

With nowhere else to turn in this heavyhearted world 

Traded our rage for broken bones 

Traded our fear for someplace to call home 

Traded a lifetime for one long day 

Nothing is more beautiful than to fade away

Fear and the memory of painful youth 

It prepared us for the painful truth 

So gather only what's sacred summons all of your courage 

And walk with me into this heavyhearted world
