Heavy Being You

There’s this kid

Isn’t scared about nothing

He’s been tricked

Ripped off gone left behind

Out there

For to grow old to

His mama’s sick

His mama’s sick with the drinking

His daddy’s a dick

‘Cause he went up and left on the fly

Out there

One night met up

Sat on the corner of sixth street

Tears in his eyes

Told me that he’s gonna leave this town

And get out there

Somewhere to belong to

He didn’t leave

He didn’t go

He got caught up

It’s cyclical

Another beer down

Drinking alone

These nights end the same

Passed on the floor

And I didn’t wonder

If anything was wrong

One step forward

Two steps back

Keeps you from moving

Keeps you from getting on track
