Blue October - Weight of the World lyrics
[Blue October - Weight of the World lyrics]
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
And my mother, she sit's 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
Wrong again gone fucking wrong again
Well, liars they leave a guilty trail
Let me tell you: I've been lying for years
That must be why I'm standing in this space
Constantly, over and over
I'm disregarding that I have
Created these monsters
That are on 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 windowsill
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 someone's dream
Now you've seen what I've done
When the weight of all the
World's gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong again
This room is old and wise
I fall onto the bed and wonder
"How did I get here?" i was a little boy who
Would argue with a tree
Go ahead, thump his head
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 down, whenever
Let's go let's really, really go
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
And my mother, she sit's 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
Wrong again gone fucking wrong again
Well, liars they leave a guilty trail
Let me tell you: I've been lying for years
That must be why I'm standing in this space
Constantly, over and over
I'm disregarding that I have
Created these monsters
That are on 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 windowsill
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 someone's dream
Now you've seen what I've done
When the weight of all the
World's gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong again
This room is old and wise
I fall onto the bed and wonder
"How did I get here?" i was a little boy who
Would argue with a tree
Go ahead, thump his head
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 down, whenever
Let's go let's really, really go
