VERSE

You carry birthdays, lunches, and nights

The hundred little moving things

I carry inches, rates, and fears

And what happens if the work disappears

Neither burden makes more sound

So one of us puts the other down

CHORUS

Different kinds of heavy, different storms behind the eyes

You're drowning in the details,

I'm drowning where I hide

Maybe love ain't proving,

whose load is worse tonight

Maybe it's two tired people,

helping each other make it right

| F# |

Helping each other make it right I

| F# |

VERSE

missed the shoes

You missed the signs

That I was bad

Barely holding my eye

We both kept shouting

Can't you see?

From opposite sides of the same debris

BRIDGE

This ain't a competition

The winner in this home

The heaviest thing we carried

was believing we carried it alone

CHORUS

It's different kinds of heavy

But it's the same need underneath

To be known and to be wanted

To be given room to breathe

BRIDGE

Let's stop defending our pain

Stand on the same side

Two tired people

making each other's burden lie

| F# | G#m | G#m7 |

Making each other's burden lie

| G#m | G#m7 |
