Ever carried the weight of another?
|
For how long?
|
Or walk as far as they need to recover?
|
For how long?
|
|
I want to carry a piece of who i was before
|
So when I hit the wall I really hit the wall (excuse me)
|
I want to tear away the death again
|
A whiter shade of fucking meth again
|
I want to stick to clues
|
I want to come unglued
|
I want to shape the world to fit the way you move
|
Oh should I listened for a dress size?
|
|
I owned up, I've grown up do you remember me?
|
I showed up and so what if I'm the used to be
|
I'm here to tell you that I¡¯m sorry I was sorry
|
But i¡¯m happy that you're happy this is no longer about me
|
Trade roles, switch sides for your beautiful eyes
|
Let him be there through your beautiful cries
|
Let him hold you up so you can touch affordable skies
|
And live your life just like a dream without the pain of goodbyes
|
Goodbye!
|

|
I¡¯ve been a drunk, disrespectful little street punk
|
Unlock the back of my trunk, you see now take this bat
|
And bash my head into the street again (street again)
|
No ones around so I keep beating it
|
I pull my hair back and look me in the eye
|
There¡¯s a self-destructive meaning in the bleeding of a guy
|
It's the guilt of what reality has given me
|
Making sense of all mistakes and my stupidity
|
|
When you're sick you seem to think you failed eternally
|
And that the people you let in are only crumbling
|
When you feel sick of faking life and this recovery
|
When my decisions paved the road that lies in front of me
|
So to the friends that even call that I don¡¯t call back
|
I hold you deep inside my heart upon a hill
|
It seems to hide sometimes to run away and wonder
|
I¡¯m really sick of saying sorry but i will
|
|
Ever carried the weight of another?
|
For how long? ( Where were you? Where were you?)
|
Or walk as far as they need to recover?
|
For how long? (Where will you be?)
|
|
But, are we scared to take the ride?
|
Or dare to get inside...
|
I¡¯m floating farther away
|
Floating far away
|
Floating far away... letting go
|
|
I wanna learn to walk with others as an equal
|
I wanna treat the ones who love me with respect
|
I wanna tell the world I¡¯ll give them all a piggy back
|
And try to to take away my negative affect
|
I wanna kiss a girl and know I'll never lie again
|
I wanna call my dad and tell him that I care
|
I wanna let my brother know he saved my life
|
A thousand times throughout the years
|
He's been the friend who's always there...
|
|
Floating far away
|
Floating far away
|
I'm floating far away.....letting go
|
