The Weight I Choose
Style: Acoustic soul

[Verse 1]
One handle, and we split it even
You take the heavy side again
I never once said put it down
Some weight I carry without grieving

[Pre-chorus]
It is not much, a bag, a load
But you make plain things feel like home
I am not scared of where this goes

[Chorus]
Albie, you make the ordinary hold
Plastic stretching thin but never cold
Whatever bends, I bend it too
Albie, I chose you, I still choose

[Verse 2]
Some nights the walk home takes forever
You hum a tune I half remember
I watch your hand around the strap
Steady, like you'll hold it whenever

[Chorus]
Albie, you make the ordinary hold
Plastic stretching thin but never cold
Whatever bends, I bend it too
Albie, I chose you, I still choose

[Bridge]
No grand thing said, no promise sworn
Just this, and this, and being worn
Together, easy, nothing forced

[Chorus]
Albie, you make the ordinary hold
Plastic stretching thin but never cold
Whatever bends, I bend it too
Albie, I chose you, I still choose

[Outro]
Both our hands still on the same thin line
Steady now, and always mine
