He's not sleeping well this winter
he can't make it through the night
he's got the weight of the world
and the weight of the girl
pushing in
'cause she left him now he loves her
and now it's twisting him

The boy is blind to the baggage
it's about proximity
and the weight of the girl
on his worth
is hard to believe
and he's moving like a vapor
through his own story

Like a heavy, dead animal
that's the weight of the girl
like a dense, dying star
that's the weight of the girl
he's collapsing into himself
from the weight of the girl
will he ever get over, I wonder
from having been under

the weight of the girl

Sysyphus in a t-shirt
the Ancient Mariner in jeans
it's a force of will
to Netflix and chill
while his head and heart
explode
the cure for what's always ailed him
is letting go

Like a heavy, dead animal
that's the weight of the girl
like a dense, dying star
that's the weight of the girl
he's collapsing into himself
from the weight of the girl
will he ever get over, I wonder
from having been under

the weight of the girl

Second guessing every moment
regret's a terrible place to live
believe me I know
I've got the scars to show
so far be it from me
we all want tabla rasa
but you've got to kick it clean

Like a heavy, dead animal
that's the weight of the girl
like a dense, dying star
that's the weight of the girl
he's collapsing into himself
from the weight of the girl
will he ever get over, I wonder
from having been under
