"Sink Like A Stone" lyrics

I suppose that we should have seen this coming
But nobody knows when it's all about to break
I was a red light telling you to slow down
You were a brush fire no one could contain, whoa

You're gonna sink like a stone if you don't get out
This burden buries the soul, and I can't let you drown
If you carry this weight on your own, no help
You're gonna break down

Did you just figure it out? Did you just figure it out?
Did you just figure it out? You just, hey

When everybody's crying on your shoulder
And your knees are buckling under the weight
Well, how much longer can you walk before you finally have to stop?
We can only get so far, please tell me
Can you let go of the weight? Whoa, whoa

You're gonna sink like a stone if you don't get out
This burden buries the soul, and I can't let you drown
If you carry this weight on your own, no help
You're gonna break down
You're gonna break down

Well, the world is a stage, at least that's what they say
Will you carry the weight? Will you carry the weight?
It's okay to let go this unbearable load
To be light as a bird, spread your wings, it's your turn, oh

You're gonna sink like a stone if you don't get out
This burden buries the soul, and I can't let you drown
'Cause if you carry this weight on your own, no help
You're gonna break down

You're gonna sink like a stone
You're gonna sink like a stone
'Cause if you carry this weight on your own, no help
You're gonna break down
