Heart's Too Heavy

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.

Well these angels in my eardrums they can't tell bad from good

I lived inside these melodies just to make sure I still could

And I cried all night even though I'm wrong

Said honey hold me close make it feel like home

Cos your love's bad enough to burn all night

Someimtes love is a losing fight

You try to keep going but the ride won't steady

You try to get high but your heart's too heavy

You've got one thing on your mind

But now there's snake eyes on the sidewalk and fireworks overhead

Won't you roll out that red carpet when we all wind up dead

And you're smoke rings fade like a memory

You're honest as a ghost maybe twice as free

You've got faith enough to lift this curse

What if faith is just a false God's verse

You try to keep going but the ride won't steady

You try to get high but your heart's too heavy

You've got one thing on your mind

And I'm pulling up devils from the long dark past

And the pain starts piling up too fast

I can pin down the minute that I lost my buzz

Thought I was somebody nobody could love

Try to keep going but the ride won't steady

You try to get to high but your heart's too heavy

You've got one thing on your mind
