"Dead Weight" lyrics

"Dead Weight"

I was a fool to think you'd break my fall
You showed your colors to me after all
Won't waste my breath trying to make you see
That you couldn't handle being there for me

Whoa, oh, oh

You ain't ever gonna be in my way
You ain't ever gonna see the day
You could ever make me feel afraid
Of your sticks and stones, your box of bones
All you are is dead weight

I catch my breath now that you're off my chest
I'm better now because you thought you were the best
I'm steppin' out, I'm speeding up, I'm on the move
It's easier to get there without you

Ooh, ooh, ooh

You ain't ever gonna be in my way
You ain't ever gonna see the day
You could ever make me feel afraid
Of your sticks and stones, your box of bones
All you are is dead weight

Thank you for setting me free

You ain't ever gonna be in my way
You ain't ever gonna see the day
You could ever make me feel afraid
Of your sticks and stones, your box of bones
All you are is dead weight
Your vanity, your jealousy
All you are is dead weight
All you are, all you are
All you are is dead weight
