    Story Behind the Song
    This turned out to be one of my favorite songs on the collection called "Thinly Veiled Lies And The Truth". Some songs kind of write themselves once you wind them up with a good starting phrase. When the words "If you imagine the weight of the world all on the head of a pin" came to mind, the rest all seemed to follow very naturally.

    Lyrics
    If you imagine the weight of the world all on the head of a pin
    Could you imagine the weight of the pim on your shoulder?
    No matter what you do, the world turns on it's own
    And in the end you're still just a part of the weight of the world.

    Imagine the weight of your soul on the tip of a feather
    You could float on the wind, as far as the wind could blow
    No control of your own trusting in destiny
    And in the end you'll be where you belong, no regrets where you've been

    But it's not that simple
    And everyone you know will tell you so
    While thery're trying to move the weight of the world with a feather
    But as for the fool on the hill who sits and watches the world go by
    He may be foolish, but is he less happy than you or I?

    We all could be fools
    And carry the weight together
    As we float on the wind
    And lose all the weight of the world
