Hold My Weight
I like to hide behind the mess I’ve made
or maybe I’m stuck in my mind
well here there come again
just before the end
tellin’ me that I’m not makin’ sense
maybe they’re right
please don’t take too long
I don’t know where they go
but it’s empty in this place
so I’m countin’ down the days
til they hold my weight
when it’s over I’ll be closer
and I’ll start to feel my age
so I’m countin’ down the days
til they hold my weight
heard it only lasts for so long
so I just stay here waiting
mind is on the ropes
took a picture of the thoughts that I just can’t seem to hold
feel another change in my bones
can’t hear what the bad mans sayin’
keep his face out of my head
can’t remember all the words that he had said
please don’t wait too long
I don’t know where they go
but it’s empty in this place
so I’m countin’ down the days
til they hold my weight
when it’s over I’ll be closer
and I’ll start to feel my age
so I’m countin’ down the days
til they hold my weight
don’t you complicate these memories we made please
fantasize the words you’ll put upon your grave stone
am I alright
am I alright
am I alright now
just give it time
just give it time
just give it time now
don’t you wanna save these for the rainy days we
navigate away from places made to make us crazy
are we alright
are we alright
are we alright now
just give us time
just give us time
just give us time now
please
when you leave
lock the door and take the key
don’t be gone too long now
I don’t know where they go
but it’s empty in this place
so I’m countin’ down the days
til they hold my weight
when it’s over I’ll be closer
and I’ll start to feel my age
so I’m countin’ down the days
til they hold my weight
