[00:00.00]The Decemberists - Don't Carry It All
[00:12.25]
[00:14.25]Here we come to a turning of the season
[00:20.92]Witness to the arc towards the sun
[00:27.57]A neighbor's blessed burden within reason
[00:34.32]Becomes a burden borne of all and one
[00:39.38]And nobody, nobody knows
[00:42.25]Let the yolk fall from our shoulders
[00:48.35]Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
[00:55.56]We are all our hands and holders
[01:00.47]Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
[01:06.39]And this I swear to all
[01:10.17]
[01:15.01]A monument to build beneath the arbors
[01:21.63]Upon a plinth that towers t'wards the trees
[01:28.13]Let every vessel pitching hard to starboard
[01:34.89]Lay its head on summer's freckled knees
Chorus
[01:39.85]And nobody, nobody knows
[01:42.42]Let the yolk fall from our shoulders
[01:48.68]Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
[01:55.75]We are all our hands and holders
[02:00.69]Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
[02:13.29][02:06.63]And this I swear to all
[02:16.74][02:10.38]
[02:21.89]A there a wreath of trillium and ivy
[02:28.70]Laid upon the body of a boy
[02:35.33]Lazy will the loam come from its hiding
[02:41.99]And return this quiet searcher to the soil
[02:47.23]
[02:48.67]So raise a glass to turnings of the season
[02:55.53]And watch it as it arcs towards the sun
[03:01.46]And you must bear your neighbor's burden within reason
[03:08.61]And your labors will be born when all is done
Chorus
[03:14.04]And nobody, nobody knows
[03:16.70]Let the yolk fall from our shoulders
[03:23.13]Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
[03:29.94]We are all our hands and holders
[03:34.94]Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
[04:00.91][03:54.27][03:47.60][03:41.02]And this I swear to all
[04:11.15][03:57.55][03:51.32][03:44.80]
[04:13.11]
