Weight Of The World Lyrics

I black out in the room again 

Busted lip and broken skin 

I wake up in the bathroom 

And dare not bother asking 

Why the mirror's cracked and all I see 

Are shards of glass inside of me 

A voice is there to dare me 

My father's here to scare me 



My mother sits beyond the door 

She's curled up, crying on the floor 

"Look at what our son's done, 

The weight of all the world's gone wrong." 



Liars leave a guilty trail 

And I've lied for years 

That must be why I'm sitting in this space 

Disregarding I've created monsters 

On both of my sides 

So I wipe the blood from both their eyes 

From all four of their eyes 



And while I wait for wounds to heal 

I see you by the window sill 

Your heart tore out 

A plastic spoon 

Honesty lit up the room 

I steal the pillowcase to clean 

This mess I'd made of someone's dream 

Now you see what I've done 

When the weight of all the world's gone wrong 

Gone wrong... gone wrong... 



This room is old and wise 

I fall into the bed and wonder, "How did I get here?" 

The little boy who would argue with a tree 

Just thump his head and he'll turn back to normal 

So why is this what I see? 



Don't bother trusting 

Don't bother waiting 

Don't bother changing things that won't give in to changing. 

Just let me go away. 

I'm packed. 

Let's go...let's go
