With Every Step

Carry your weight up the staircase Carry your weight through the graveyard gates Carry your weight in war and truce Carry your weight and others too They snub you off like you're not even there Carry your weight or you lose your head Carry that weight in the quiet night Twilight slips to the morning light Carry that weight 'till your fingers shake Carry that weight 'till your palms burn Carry that weight like you thought That someday someone will come And carry you in return And you lose just who you are When the weight crushes your heart And it hurts with every step How you wish to be someone else Just for a while Carry your weight from nine to seven Carry that shit since ninetyseven Carry that weight just to feel alive Carry that shit just to exist And if they snub you off You're gonna fuck them up Carry that weight 'cause the others won't Carry their weight 'till your head comes off Carry their weight 'till the earth shakes Carry their weight 'till the world burns Carry their weight though you know that no-one will Ever pay back and carry yours in return And you lose just who you are When the weight crushes your heart And it hurts with every step How you wish to be someone else And it hurts with every step How you wish to be someone else Just for a while And you lose just who you are When the weight crushes your heart And you lose just who you are Just who you are And it hurts with every step How you wish to be someone else And it hurts with every step How you wish to be someone else Just for a while Just for a while Just for a while
