Deadweight
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hold out on what is real, I believed in an open- ended fate
And everything I took for granted, will all but redefine me
Blank stares calling out the coward in me
Their eyes pierce like bitter cold
I built this hell with my own two hands, blood mixed
With the mortar and bricks made of fucking gold
Keep me awake, and embrace the nothing
Being buried alive under the weight of passing time
I can't breathe, I can't see, through these bloodshot eyes
Keep me alive, these chains that bind and break me
Attached to the anchors of my demise
And I will rest on the ocean floor
I am Deadweight
Regret is all I have
I hold against myself the weight of the world
As the weight of my world
Comes crashing down. I can’t win
Regret is all I know
Hold against myself the weight of the world
As the weight of my world
Comes crashing down. I can’t win
All I know, is this hell I've built
And all I hear are the wolves at my doorstep
They're taking all I have; they're waiting patiently to watch me fall
Regret is all I have
I hold against myself the weight of the world
As the weight of my world
Comes crashing down
I can’t win
Regret is all I know
I hold against myself the weight of the world
As the weight of my world
Comes crashing down
I can’t win
