Ain'T It 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.
Sometimes I know that it's never enough
Survival is fine but satisfaction is rough
I try with an angel tonight
Spread these wings and I'm on for the ride
Cruise these streets where my innocence hides
There's some things you can't deny
What is it about this human condition
I need some kind of promise
some kind of submission tonight
CHORUS:
Heavy
Ain't it heavy
Ain't the night heavy
I'm feelin' kinda loose I'm feelin' kinda mean
I've been feeling kinda wild since I turned seventeen
Or is it madness
Tell me where can a woman find any kind of peace
When does the fury and the agony cease
How long have I got to say please
There's a hole in my jeans I only wanted to fade
I've been ripping out the seams
somebody else made tonight
(CHORUS)
