Heavy as Lead

This old house might swallow us whole Begins with our family and soon it comes 'round to our soul We're trying to grab 'hold of what we can't control Always living here on the edge And that little heart, so little and complete Doesn't worry 'bout making ends meet As the dust is settling on every street I am filling with dread And that's got me feeling, feeling heavy as lead Don't tell me everything's gonna be alright Don't tell me everything's gonna be alright And I don't mean to be so unkind I've just got too much weighing in on my mind I'm always afraid I'm falling behind Always reaching to get ahead And that's got me feeling, feeling heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead Heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead Heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead
