How much does the world weigh?
His last breath will save the lost
The human spirit is a funny thing
That claim to know what all the answers are
Mom or dad, either way he'll lose
Hey, how much does the world weigh
How much strength does it take?
And to keep the world from caving in
Ask that Man hanging on the cross
They're breaking up and he thinks he's to blame
There's a lot of scientific minds
It's their little girl and all they can do is pray
Ask that couple in the waiting room
Hey, how much does the world weigh?
The doctors say it's still too soon
Ask that little boy whose gotta choose
Well, don't ask me
You'd be surprised who knows
Well, if that's the case
'Cause he finally put that bottle down
You could look up what the experts say
Hey, how much does the world weigh?
But all you gotta do is look around
Pay the bills and feed the kids
Ask that woman trying to make the rent
Six months ago their daddy walked away
Somebody's probably worked it out
How much does the world weigh?
Now he fights that battle everyday
The answer's in the tears on His face
Ask that man whose family stayed around
How far it bends before it breaks?
