[Verse 1]

Grief is a circle, wander 'round it

To notice the ending is where you began

Time is a fulcrum prying you forward

And all you can do is give in

Faith is an orbit, it's tension in motion

That pulls you along to the end

And I'm on that tightrope, grasping at stars

As I sway back and forth over the edge

[Verse 2]

Change is a promise that's given

To anyone sojourning under the sun

My thoughts are in boxes, it's the best I can do

To accept what my mindset's become

The cosmos are shifting, my feelings are, too

And I'm trying to hold them in place

So I can control all the chaos

And make you believe that I'm doing okay

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I were larger than life

That my heart and my mind

Could decide on my purpose for once

My shoulders are straining, but I'd rather believe

That gravity's no match for me

[Chorus]

So I'll hold the planets, along with your hand

And I'll hope you won't notice I don't understand

The weight of the stars and such

But I promise it's not too much

Do you see a Titan? I sure hope you do

'Cause my heart is so frightened that you'll see right through

The struggle to keep this up

But I promise it's not too much

It's not too much

[Verse 3]

What if I crash?

I swear that I won't, but I might and I'm scared

What if I'm crushed?

Underneath all the weight of my questions and cares

And my struggles and pain and convictions and grief

And commitments and purpose and meaning and calling

And fear that the fire within me has died

And the feeling that I was the ghost this whole time

Breathing the lie that I desperately want you to buy

I can carry the cosmos along with my cross

But I'm pulling both sides of that pulley

'Til it pulls me asunder

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish were larger than life

That my heart and my mind

Could decide on my purpose for once

My courage is failing to make you believe

That gravity's no match for me (Gravity's no match for me)

[Chorus]

So I'll hold the planets to prove that I can

And I'll hope you won't notice I don't understand

The weight of the stars and such

But I promise it's not too much, not too much, too much

[Bridge]

But that won't stop the fragments of Saturn from crashing down onto my head

I should have expected this, I asked for this

And that's when a voice says He'll bear it instead

And take hold of the galaxies that shackle me

And He tells me that this part is out of my hands

And He'll help me believe Him

[Chorus]

'Cause He's held the planets since He hung them in space

Just as He holds you and I in his grace

And for Jesus, it's not too much

'Cause I'm not a Titan, and I never was

But we don't need Titans to do Jesus' job

True strength is believing the height and the length

And the width and the depth of His love

[Outro]

Grief is a circle, wander 'round it

In hope that He's stronger than you could believe
