Dead Weight

Can’t sleep, darkness drowns

Ceiling to floor

Dead weight holds me down

No calm before

Storm is under your skin

Storm is under your skin

Storm is under your skin

Rain only falls around you

Blame the sad state you’re in

Pay the price for your sins

When it’s under your skin

You put up walls around it

I wasn’t born a liar, no

It’s a taste that I acquired all on my own

Your skin’s a crumbling shelter

Bones show

I don’t feel much like someone else or myself anymore

See the clouds disperse

Still your skin is crawling

Feel the roles reverse

Actions well-rehearsed

The way you’ve always done it, but it

Doesn’t feel the same

Did you really change?

Before you know, it’s all under your skin again

I wasn’t born a liar, no

It’s a taste that I acquired all on my own

Your skin’s a crumbling shelter

Bones show

I don’t feel much like someone else or myself anymore
