Deadweight

(album: Go The Other Way, Called The Echo - 2021)

It's gonna take more than you to get us both outta here
I don't wanna be cruel but I'm saving my tears
'Cause I'm done regressing, obsessing while our lives are stalling
Over lovers, like squeezing water from a stone

I sing this nursery rhyme
To pretend I'm fine and make me feel whole
I guess after all this time
It's by design, I need to stand alone
With a heart that's built to break
So I tell myself, it's better to isolate

Deadweight is hard to lose
Sticks to your bones like glue
It's just a game to you
But now you're just one more sucker in the grave

It's gonna take more than you to get us both outta here
I don't wanna be rude but I'm facing my fears
'Cause I'm done pretending wrestling with fools, it's foolish
Hopeless lovers who cling to you to save their soul

Deadweight is hard to lose
Sticks to your bones like glue
It's just a game to you
But now you're just one more sucker in the grave

One, two, three, four
Tell me that there's something more
Five, six, seven, eight
Tell me that it's not too late
One, two, three, four
Holding on for something more
Five, six, seven, eight
Tell me that it's not too late
One, two, three, four
Tell me that there's something more
Five, six, seven, eight
Tell me that it's not too late
