For a moment, I could wait to see it fall apart Every empty bed in every city I've been I sit and contemplate all the moments you said Time stands in a duel and I stand for you What's that you used to say? Find a love that you can wait for Or do you feast upon the weak and weary of heart? I can take the pain, but I can't take all the hatred Laziness of mind and simplest of thoughts Are you just too old, or too young to carry? Time stands in a duel, and I stand for you Now you're pouring out your hate at every difference you found You won't even listen to reason at all Not questioning your faith, far be it from me But you would speak of love while tying one's hands Are you just too old or too young to carry? Time stands in a duel and I stand for you Are you just too old or too young to carry? Time stands in a duel and I stand for you Now lean and use your weight That's what a shoulder's made for Carry all the dead and children from here Curses on the men and the greed that seems to plague them I can't raise my hand, so I'm raising my voice Are you just too old, or too young to carry? Time stands in a duel, and I stand for you Are you just too old, or too young to carry? Time stands in a duel, and I stand for you Time stands in a duel, and I stand for you Time stands in a duel, and I stand for you
