Weight of the world
par Blue October
lyricscopy.com
A blackout in the room again
A busted lip and broken skin.
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
Why the mirror´s cracked and all I see
Are shards of glass inside of me.
There´s voices there to dare me,
My father´s here to scare me.
My mother sits beyond the door she´s
Curled up crying on the floor,
Look at what her son´s done.
When the weight of all the world´s gone wrong.
It´s gone wrong again.
Gone fucking wrong.
It´s gone wrong again.
Well liars they leave a guilty trail.
And let me tell you something people,
I´ve been lying for fucking years.
That must be why I´m standing in this space.
Disregarding that I´ve created these monsters
They´re on fucking both of my sides,
So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes.
From all four of their eyes.
And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sill,
Your heart´s torn out
A plastic spoon
When honesty lit up that room
So I stole the pillowcase to clean
This mess I´ve made of someones dream.
Now you´ve seen what I´ve done,
When the weight of all the world´s gone wrong.
It´s gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong
It´s gone all wrong again.
This room is old and wise
I fall onto the bed and wonder,
"How did I get here?"
The little boy who would argue with a tree
Just fucking thump his head
And he´ll turn back to normal.
Now why is that what I see?
Don´t bother trusting me
Don´t bother waiting
Don´t bother changing things that won´t give into changing
Just let me go away.
I´m packed
Whenever
I´m down
Whenever.
A busted lip and broken skin.
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
Why the mirror´s cracked and all I see
Are shards of glass inside of me.
There´s voices there to dare me,
My father´s here to scare me.
My mother sits beyond the door she´s
Curled up crying on the floor,
Look at what her son´s done.
When the weight of all the world´s gone wrong.
It´s gone wrong again.
Gone fucking wrong.
It´s gone wrong again.
Well liars they leave a guilty trail.
And let me tell you something people,
I´ve been lying for fucking years.
That must be why I´m standing in this space.
Disregarding that I´ve created these monsters
They´re on fucking both of my sides,
So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes.
From all four of their eyes.
And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sill,
Your heart´s torn out
A plastic spoon
When honesty lit up that room
So I stole the pillowcase to clean
This mess I´ve made of someones dream.
Now you´ve seen what I´ve done,
When the weight of all the world´s gone wrong.
It´s gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong
It´s gone all wrong again.
This room is old and wise

Don´t bother waiting
Don´t bother changing things that won´t give into changing
Just let me go away.
I´m packed
Whenever
I´m down
Whenever.
