"the weight" lyrics

Still waking up next to you every morning
In the light, Philadelphia sun
In the window of your bedroom

And you had a bad dream
You didn't wanna tell me
And I had a good one
In danger of forgetting

And I never had so fucked up of a winter
The hard becomes routine
And it dulls out everything
So you can no longer be sure
What's still there at the center

And I told you that I'm sorry
For my lack of attention

I don't know what it means
I don't know what it means
You know I wish I could change it

And you know I'm impatient
But I've learned to wait out
Your long bouts of silence
You know that I would do anything
To figure out what you need
And get you to tell me
What you've been hiding

I know it's not that easy
I know you've been trying
I know that you are the one
Who's always being patient

And maybe this is all just a season
That we have to wait out
I am aware of the weight
That both of us are carrying

The weight...

Stepping on my way down
Hoping we can figure this all out
'Cause we've got something

Took a couple tries, as always
But it's not the same
It's not the same

Angel on the side of your face
It's not the same
It's not the same

Something I could not escape
It's not the same
It's not the same

It's not the same
It's not the same

Despite that angel on the side of your face
It's not the same
Despite that I'm in love and I cannot escape
It's not the same
