Weight Songtext

von Mark Northfield

Stand up and let me see you
Hands raised steady adagio
Eyes closed inanimate
I shoot this film

A string of past convictions
Held in complete silence
I gave you up so we could be alone

For someone would always come to take you away
No matter how set upon the path we thought we were
I am hanging falling breaking
Between one word
One word and the next
One word and the next

We hope to see the future
We aim to catch it off guard
We search for proof as if proof could be found
Within a skeletal code
Within skin cells once shed
Within the blood we were bound to deny

Someone will always come to take you away
No matter how set upon the path you thought you were
I am hanging falling breaking
Between one word
One word and the next
One word and the next
