"Heavy Being You" lyrics

"Heavy Being You"

There's this kid
Isn't scared about nothing
He's been tricked
Ripped off, gone, left behind
Out there
For to grow old to

His momma's sick
His momma's sick with the drinking
His daddy's a dick
'Cause he went up and left on the fly
Out there

One night met up
Sat on the corner of 6th Street
Tears in his eyes
Told me that he's gonna leave this town
And get out there
Somewhere to belong to

He didn't leave
He didn't go
He got caught up
It's cyclical
Another beer down
Drinking alone
These nights end the same
Passed on the floor
I didn't wonder
If anything was wrong

One step forward
Two steps back
Keeps you from moving
Keeps you from getting on track
One step forward
Two steps back
Keeps you from moving
Keeps you from getting on track
