The Weight歌词

The Weight

I want to go back, forget that it's over

Paint it in black, when you left me alone

I never knew, she was sleeping next door with the kid I grew up with
And I can't go back to her anymore, no more

You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay
And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away

And when you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
No I can't lift the weight

Put you in the past, try to forget you cause it's over

And every time you ask I'll pretend I'm okay

You're inside my head
In the middle of the night when I don't feel right
I dream I can hold you
And I can't go back to you anymore, yeah, yeah

You tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay
And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight

And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't lift the weight
Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks
I can't lift the weigh, no I can't lift the weight
Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks
I can't lift the weigh, no I can't lift the weight
Yeah, you lower your standards and I raise the stakes
I can't lift the weigh, no I can't lift the weight

Tell me you were happier within but you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you, you push me away
But then you try to take it back, my heavy heart just breaks
But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight

Tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay

You told me that you needed time but you, you push me away
And then you try to take me back
Say someday you will change, but I don't wanna wait
