Senses Fail - Carry the Weight lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I used to wanna die but now I believe

Not in a distant god, there's a love I found in me

I’d rather be awake and in pain than asleep

Singin’ as if no one can hear takes more courage than you think

(Chorus)

I carried the weight in the only way I knew x 2

(Verse)

I was scared enough to lie and say that I’m ok

When inside I was dyin’, so confused, so alone, so afraid

I hope you never know what it’s like to hide a piece of yourself inside

Or to be so fuckin’ ashamed you’d rather kill yourself than be alive

(Chorus)

[I want to be alive

I carried the weight in the only way I knew] x 2

(Bridge)

I'm still scared but I’ve got courage to be

More vulnerable and one day free

Now my heart isn’t covered in concrete

I breathe x 2

No longer scared of the vulnerability

No longer scared of the person that I see
