Weight On Me

Matt Simons, Gordon Groothedde - 2016 /From 'Catch & Release'

 

For a moment

All our cards are on the table

Why you gotta be so shy?

I’ll make something out of nothing if I’m able

I should just walk on by

 

There’s a picture

In your pocket of somebody

And he is waiting back at home

I’ve been climbing up your stairs and I am sorry

He’s got a right to know

Yeah he’s got a right to know

 

So I’m running out

Maybe you’ve got something that I dream about

We can’t keep on going around telling lies

Somewhere in this I became the other guy

I can’t be that

I don’t need that weight on me

And I don’t need that weight on me

 

There’s a world where I can picture us together and

It’d be different, it’d be right and

My conscious would be feeling so much better

Then I’ve been feeling tonight

Then I have been feeling tonight

 

So I’m running out

Maybe you’ve got something that I dream about

We can’t keep on going around telling lies

Somewhere in this I became the other guy

I can’t be that

I don’t need that weight on me

No, I don’t need that weight on me

 

We might be having our fun

But with us carry so much more

Now all this damage we’ve done

I’ve been the one alone at home before

 

And I don’t need that weight on me

I don’t need that weight on me

No, I don’t need that weight on me

I don’t need that weight on me

 

No, I don’t need that weight on me

And I don’t need that weight on me
