Lyrics
Heavyweight
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.
I'm looking for a sign that I can't see
The good, the bad, it's somewhere in between
These warning signs
These urban grinds
Let me down
The kids are building fires by their homes
The smoke is sending signals out in code
Yeah, these safety suits
These parachutes
I don't know
Gotta stop
Drop
Roll
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight. We're not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight. We're not to be
Not to be weightless
I'm choking on the words that I can't say
My lungs are full but everything's misplaced
These junkyard dogs
These cherry bombs
Go off
The sun, the sky, the moon, will fall apart
Come tumbling down just like a house of cards
These fire escapes
These lush landscapes
It fades
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight. We're not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight. We're not to be
Not to be weightless
Not to be weightless
I can feel this heavy weight hanging around my neck
I can feel your heartbeat bringing me back, and back again
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight. We're not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight. We're not to be
Not to be weightless
Be weightless
Be weightless
