[The Weight of the Rain] [ Verse 1: Male Vocals ] Caleb stands where the concrete is weathered and split, Rainwater pools in the cracks that the seasons have hit. Leather boots soak as the cold starts to seep through the thread, Watching the house while the memories fill up his head. [ Chorus 1: Male and Female Duet ] We built a world on a promise we never could keep, Now the divide is a canyon, the water is deep. Once the connection is fractured, the gravity shifts, Left with the silence and weight of the heart’s heavy rifts. [ Verse 2: Female Vocals ] A shadow is moving behind the thin fabric of lace, Crossing the room like a ghost with a stranger's face. The weeds are now fighting to rise through the cracks in the street, Pushing through pavement to witness a bitter defeat. [ Chorus 2: Male and Female Duet ] We built a world on a promise we never could keep, Now the divide is a canyon, the water is deep. Once the connection is fractured, the gravity shifts, Left with the silence and weight of the heart’s heavy rifts. [ Bridge 1: Male and Female Duet ] A laugh through the window is sharp as a knife, Cutting the cords of a broken and separate life. The brass in his hand is a key that no longer will fit, To a door that is closed and a candle that’s already lit. [ Verse 3: Male Vocals ] Caleb lets go of the metal and watches it fall, Leaving the names that the two of them used to call. The brass hits the ground with a clink that is hollow and clear, Drowning the whispers of secrets they no longer fear. [ Chorus 3: Male and Female Duet ] We built a world on a promise we never could keep, Now the divide is a canyon, the water is deep. Once the connection is fractured, the gravity shifts, Left with the silence and weight of the heart’s heavy rifts. [ Bridge 2: Male and Female Duet ] A laugh through the window is sharp as a knife, Cutting the cords of a broken and separate life. The brass in his hand is a key that no longer will fit, To a door that is closed and a candle that’s already lit. [ Verse 4: Female Vocals ] The rain starts to wash out the sound of the brass on the stone, Leaving the path to the porch feeling quiet and lone. Caleb turns back from the window and walks toward the night, Giving up ground as he steps out of reach of the light. [ Final Chorus: Male and Female Duet ] We built a world on a promise we never could keep, Now the divide is a canyon and the water is deep. The locks have been changed and the gravity finally shifts, Left with the rain and the weight of the heart's heavy rifts. [ Outro: Male and Female Duet ] Heavy silence is all that is left of the past, A shadow is moving where nothing was ever to last. The cold and the rain are the only things left to be known, Walking away on the cracks of the path that we own.
