Heavy

I fought a battle, I fought a war

I felt the rain on my face

Sometimes to find what you're looking for

You've got to learn from your worst mistakes

I made a wish on a satellite

That I mistook for a star

Guess when you build up to break down

You find out who you really are

How did it all get so heavy

I used to stand up so tall

There's only so much I can carry

Before I fall

And they tell me: Girl you're so lucky

You've got the world in your hands

But you know the world gets so heavy

You don't understand

And that's heavy

Just tell me what's the intention

Is it to fall in love

I tried to find a connection

Between how it is and how it was

I made a promise I couldn't keep

Another story to tell

You swear to God that you know me

But I don't, don't even know myself

How did it all get so heavy

I used to stand up so tall

There's only so much I can carry

Before I fall

And they tell me: Girl you're so lucky

You've got the world in your hands

But you know the world gets so heavy

You don't understand

And that's heavy

Sometimes I lay awake in bed at night

I close my eyes and all I see

Is the dreams I used to dream about when I was younger

I wonder where I took the path of no return

I might've lost my way a hundred times

But no I never ever lost the ground

Oh and I know every cut

And every stitch and every scar

I know they've gotten me this far

They only made me tough, they made me stronger

The limit's hard to break

But I just can't get off the floor

I long for days when I was free

A life I lived so long before

It all got so heavy

I used to stand up so tall

There's only so much I can carry

Before I fall

They tell me: Girl you're so lucky

You've got the world in your hands

But you know the world gets so heavy

You don't understand

And that's heavy, heavy
