The Sky Bearer

I carried the sky on

My backI caught it the day that it fell

All of the world had turned black

And stared into the mouth of

HellIt crushed all the mountains

And the tops of the trees

For even a moment even brought

Me to My knees

On My shoulders

I lifted impossible weight

Up the mountain

I bore the unbearable freight

It was in silence that

I aroseAnd in silence infinity closed

There are no words wasted

When death is tasted

I carried the sky on

My backAll of the world had turned black

And stared into the mouth of

HellIt crushed all the mountains

And the tops of the trees

For even a moment even brought

Me to My knees

On my shoulders

I lifted impossible weight

Up the mountain

I bore the unbearable freight
