The Blue Backpack

(Single)

A melancholic song that delves into the emotional weight carried by a friend, symbolized by their blue backpack.

Lyrics:

Can’t see you without it there
Carrying it all on your shoulders
It’s too much for just one to bear
Ultramarine getting colder

You can’t let it go
So I can’t let you go
When you carry the weight of the blue
I wish I could hold it for you

It’s covered in radiant facades
All circumscribed in a pack
Somehow still not liberated
It’s carried around on your back

You can’t let it go
So I can’t let you go
When you carry the weight of the blue
I wish I could hold it for you

Are you sure there is nothing to do?
I’d turn into Atlas to bear it for you
It’s blue like the depths of the sea
But with you there’s no where I’d rather be

Oh…
I won’t let you go
You can’t let it go
So I can’t let you go
When you carry the weight of the blue
I wish I could hold it for you

When you carry the weight of the blue
I wish I could hold it for you
