The Weight

You see it going down
It happens to all of your friends
They start to look exactly like their parents
While giving you only the presence
Of nothing more than a digital acquaintance
For all the years they seem to have glory
Which just becomes the same old boring stories
Of living other's lives, gossiping
Just listen to this birdsong songbird sing

Forget regretting the sequel to upsetting
The best we can do the darkest shadows of night
For setting kindling the system that does our bidding
Though we knew that nothing's as heavy as light

And when the cynics grow sick of sin
They will attempt to tie up their loose ends
And find it hard to stay where they've been
Just as a hypocrite's news begins to descend
No matter what you think they may think
Life's a sea, you must swim or you'll sink
You're at every turn, right or left wrong
Just sing along to the songbird bird song

Life will try and take you
Break you, make or fake you
Then it will forsake you
The weight is too awake you
You can only break through
A place that you can take to
Bigger of us are likes you
Forget the things what's no no no

Gravity of our situation
Gravity of our indignation
If the past presents to weigh down
Let future scale around
Behold your fate you'll be the holder
The world a chip you choose to shoulder
This critics' change is not to frighten
The weight is always to enlighten
