"Heavy Weight" lyrics

"Heavy Weight"

I share the weight, it′s not in my bones
But it sits on my skin like wet clothes
Been taken down and out
And I don't want you to drown
But all you care to do is swim

It′s a heavy weight
I said, thick as the wild weeds
It's a heavy weight growing over everything
It's a heavy weight
I said, thick as the wild weeds
It′s a heavy weight growing over everything

This love has made me blind
But, doubt′s been on my side
You see, it's easier to keep one foot on the ground
The wind keeps calling me while I′m weighted underneath
I keep fighting, but I know, one day I'll give in

It′s a heavy weight
I said, thick as the wild weeds
It's a heavy weight growing over everything
It′s a heavy weight
I said, thick as the wild weeds
It's a heavy weight growing over everything

I share the weight it's not in my bones
But it sits on my skin like wet clothes
It′s so heavy
It′s so heavy
It's so heavy, heavy, heavy, oh
It′s so heavy
It's so heavy
It′s so heavy, heavy, heavy
It's a heavy weight

I said, thick as the wild weeds
It′s a heavy weight growing over everything
