Carry Me
I need someone to lift me
Off my feet
To give me
What I need
Just carry me
Away from this city
Away from myself

Take these chains
Off my feet
Away to some peace
Just carry me
Away from the shelter that hurts
Just carry me

To where I can be someone else
Please
Carry me

&quot;At this moment, there are 6 billion, 4 hundred, 71 million, 8 hundred, 18 thousand, 6 hundred, 71 people in the world. Some are running scared.. some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day.. others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good.. struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world, 6 billion souls -- and sometimes.. all you need is 1.&quot;
