OUR LADY PEACE - Heavyweight lyrics

rate me

"Heavyweight"

I'm looking for a sign that I can't see

The good the bad is somewhere in between

These warning signs, and the servant grinds, me down

The kids are building fires by their homes

The smoke is sending signals out in code

These safety suits, these parachutes

I don't know

Gotta stop, drop, roll

When all these walls come down

They'll shake us

We fight not to be, not to be weightless

Oh when all these stars hit ground

They'll wake us

We fight not to be, not to be weightless

I'm choking on the words that I cant say

My lungs are full but everythings misplaced

And these junkyard dogs, these cherry bombs, go off

The sun, the sky, the moon will fall apart

Come tumbling down just like a house of cards

These fire escapes, and this lush landscape, it fades

When all these walls come down

They'll shake us

We fight not to be, not to be weightless

Oh when all these stars hit ground

They'll wake us

We fight not to be, not to be weightless

Weightless

I can feel this heavyweight hanging around my neck

I can feel your heartbeat bringing me back

Back again

When all these walls come down

They'll shake us

We fight not to be, not to be weightless

Oh when all these stars hit ground

They'll wake us

We fight not to be, not to be weightless

Weightless

Weightless
