weight Lyrics

Wrap it up good

Put it to bed

Don't wanna be asked

To be there

Until there's blood on my wrists

Said it isn't productive

To see it all through

No grief for the child I was

'Cause she's not who you knew

Call it a forest fire

But you don't see the flames

To you it's all ashes

But it eats me away

I'm trying to get better

The corrective grief aches

Do I have to be dying

For you to carry my weight?

I'm not strong like you are

I'm not built to be brave

Aren't you sorry you picked me?

Saw the damage too late

I dream of my funeral

The relief on your face

I think that you'd love me more

If I weren't here to complain

Call it a forest fire

But you don't see the flames

To you it's all ashes

But it eats me away

I'm trying to get better

The corrective grief aches

Do I have to be dying

For you to carry my weight?

I break all my limbs

Just to reset the bone

You ask why it hurts

When it's been broken before

Asking for pity

Pathetic, I know

Pull me apart

I just want to be known
