Weight

"Weight"

When I truly fall for someone, I can't get them out of my heart for a decade. Sometimes I can almost physically feel the weight of every love I've known, pressing down on my shoulders. I wake up with them, I go to sleep with them. A few extra minutes to get out of bed, a bit more drag on my shoes as I walk. Sometimes I feel they are too much to bear.

I love you. I am terrified of you.

Lyrics:

Life somewhere far away, no mistaking,
it could be you
I think it every day, if we were the same
if that could be true...

We could be on the floor
On our backs, screaming "more!"

I know you want me
But I've come close enough for now
Oh god, you haunt me
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground

Bless me with just one kiss
before you leave me here with my heart
Tell me you want me home on the phone
Tear me apart

Could we be something more?
All that I'm hoping for?

I know you want me
But I've come close enough for now
Oh god, you haunt me
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground
I'm scared you'll leave me in the ground
