Dead Weight

Another four leaf cover

One more wish upon a star

Dirty penny in the well

Make things better than they are

Scraping by on all the scratches

Hoping they won't become a scar

Beautiful distractions

Pinning us to the place we are

I'm sick of second guessing

All the lessons I have learned

I'm tired of choking on the

Smoke from all the bridges burned

Another face forgotten

As another scar is earned

Another bookmark in the story

As the pages turn

Dead Weight

Is dragging me down

It's too late

For apologies now

Best of luck

Guess I'll see you around

The dead weight's dragging me down

I'm sick of stressing over

Bullshit that I can't control

I watch the bills pile up

Cuz I refuse to sell my soul

Another play and one step closer

To a starring role

Another day and one step closer

To a six foot hole

Dead Weight

Is dragging me down

It's too late

For apologies now

Best of luck

Guess I'll see you around

The dead weight's dragging me down
