Blue October (UK) - "Weight Of The World" lyrics
I black out in the room again
Busted lip and broken skin
Why the mirror's cracked and all I see
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
A voice is there to dare me
Are shards of glass inside of me
My father's here to scare me
My mother sits beyond the door
"Look at what our son's done,
She's curled up, crying on the floor
The weight of all the world's gone wrong."
Liars leave a guilty trail
That must be why I'm sitting in this space
And I've lied for years
Disregarding I've created monsters
On both of my sides
So I wipe the blood from both their eyes
From all four of their eyes
Busted lip and broken skin
Why the mirror's cracked and all I see
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
A voice is there to dare me
Are shards of glass inside of me
My father's here to scare me
My mother sits beyond the door
"Look at what our son's done,
She's curled up, crying on the floor
The weight of all the world's gone wrong."
Liars leave a guilty trail
That must be why I'm sitting in this space
And I've lied for years
Disregarding I've created monsters
On both of my sides
So I wipe the blood from both their eyes
From all four of their eyes
I see you by the window sill
And while I wait for wounds to heal
Your heart tore out
A plastic spoon
Honesty lit up the room
I steal the pillowcase to clean
Now you see what I've done
This mess I'd made of someone's dream
When the weight of all the world's gone wrong
Gone wrong... gone wrong...
This room is old and wise
I fall into the bed and wonder, "How did I get here'"
The little boy who would argue with a tree
Just thump his head and he'll turn back to normal
So why is this what I see'
Don't bother trusting
Don't bother waiting
Just let me go away.
Don't bother changing things that won't give in to changing.
I'm packed.
Let's go...let's go
And while I wait for wounds to heal
Your heart tore out
A plastic spoon
Honesty lit up the room
I steal the pillowcase to clean
Now you see what I've done
This mess I'd made of someone's dream
When the weight of all the world's gone wrong
Gone wrong... gone wrong...
This room is old and wise
I fall into the bed and wonder, "How did I get here'"
The little boy who would argue with a tree
Just thump his head and he'll turn back to normal
So why is this what I see'
Don't bother trusting
Don't bother waiting
Just let me go away.
Don't bother changing things that won't give in to changing.
I'm packed.
Let's go...let's go
