"Dead Weight" lyrics

Cold caller
I felt like one my whole life
Up all night
Begging some stranger to stay on the line

So when I met you
And I tried to sell you
On every reason not to leave
You told me you want this
And you're being honest
So I'm gonna let myself believe

I finally get it
You're not gonna hang it up
You're not gonna hang up the phone
And I thought I was dead weight
But you wanna carry me
You wanna carry me home

Free falling
Hoping the ground won't get in the way
Like an old habit
'Cause I've got used to loving at arms length

But now I'm starting over
Feeling lighter, coming closer

I finally get it
You're not gonna hang it up
You're not gonna hang up the phone
And I thought I was dead weight
But you wanna carry me
You wanna carry me home

I'm so much lighter now, ah
I'm so much higher, oh
And I thought I was dead weight
But you wanna carry me
You wanna carry me home

I finally get it
You're not gonna hang it up
You're not gonna hang up
And I thought I was dead weight
But you wanna carry me
You wanna carry me home

I'm so much lighter now, ah
I'm so much higher, oh
And I thought I was dead weight
But you wanna carry me
You wanna carry me home

I'm so much lighter now, ah
I'm so much higher
I'm so much lighter now, ah
(And I thought I was dead weight, but you)
I'm so much higher

Cold caller
I felt like one my whole life
