Description
Sometimes it feels like the sun doesn't shine to warm us, but to test our strength. The world is burning, drying, blowing dust into your eyes with the wind, and from all these trials, a strange fatigue appears inside, like after a long conversation with yourself. And then suddenly - a shadow. Someone is nearby who isn't afraid of other people's storms. He says, "Come on, spill it all." And with that permission, it's like you stop being alone against the world. The music is like it's about how you don't have to hide your pain, but can lay it on someone's shoulder. Without pathos, without pretence - simply because it's easier together. The road reappears in the sand, and in the heat, there's a reason to keep going.

Lyrics and translation
Original
You've been wandering through the desert. Sun is beating on your skin.
You've been searching in the wind for a sign. You keep looking for an answer.
You've been screaming at the sky, needing someone by your side.
Ain't we all got a little bit of hurting? Life's too short to carry them burdens.
One by one, tonight we're gonna burn 'em down. Baby, lay it all, lay it all, lay it all on me.
Give me all your troubles, baby, I can set you free.
Say it all, say it all, say it all to me. Tell me all your troubles, baby, lay it on, lay it on me.
Baby, baby, oh, lay it all on me.
Oh, baby, baby, baby, I can set you free.
Baby, baby, oh, lay it all on me. Tell me all your troubles, baby, lay it on, lay it on me.
I can be your shield, I'll be your shelter.
No, it don't make you weak, go 'head and tell me what you need.
'Cause I swear if you go down, we go together.
If you're worried, if you're scared, say the word, and I'll be there.
Lay it all, lay it all, lay it all on me.
Give me all your troubles, baby, I can set you free. Say it all, say it all, say it all to me.
Tell me all your troubles, baby, lay it on, lay it on me.
Baby, baby, oh, lay it all on me. Oh, baby, baby, baby, I can set you free.
Baby, baby, oh, lay it all on me.
Tell me all your troubles, baby, lay it on, lay it on me.
Baby, baby, oh, lay it all on me.
Oh, baby, baby, baby, I can set you free. Baby, baby, oh, lay it all on me.
Tell me all your troubles, baby, lay it on, lay it on me.
