Changing Hands

[Verse 1]
When the crutch you used to walk with splinters into pieces
When the beaten path has beat you down
So hard that you still feel it

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When the burden's too heavy to carry alone
I can take it off your shoulders
Too heavy a burden to carry on your own
You were there for me, I'm here for you

[Chorus]
Pain keeps changing hands
Fate keeps changing plans
What you cannot handle
You know that I can
Help me (help me) understand
Let the pain change hands

[Verse 2]
I can handle you at your worst
If it leads me to the better half
I will find a way to put you first
So both of us don't finish last

[Pre-Chorus 2]
When the burden's too heavy to carry alone
Need someone in your corner
Too heavy a burden to carry on your own
You were there for me, I'm here for you

[Chorus]
Pain keeps changing hands
Fate keeps changing plans
What you cannot handle
You know that I can
Help me (help me) understand
Let the pain change hands

[Bridge]
Who holds you now, who holds it all back?
"What holds you down?" is what you wrote back
And let it out, nothing to take back
I feel you now
I feel you now
I feel you now
I feel you now
I feel you now

[Chorus 2]
Pain keeps changing hands
Fate keeps changing plans
What you cannot handle
You know that I can

[Chorus 3]
Pain keeps changing hands
(When the burden's too heavy to carry alone)
Fate keeps changing plans
For what I cannot handle, I know that you can
(Too heavy a burden to carry on your own)
Help me (help me) understand
(When the burden's too heavy to carry alone)
Let the pain change hands
(Too heavy a burden to carry on your own)
(You were there for me, I'm here for you)
