It's hard to know really whether I'm in touch with the real melancholic facts of life and the intricacies of my own brokenness, or whether sometimes I'm dealing with something you might call "depression"... life is not easy... bad things happen... we all "carry the weight of the world on our shoulders" to some degree... and sometimes it can feel overwhelming... and those times, when it's heavier than usual, I just want a break from this feeling. This song was born of all these thoughts and feelings.
