Weight of The World – Blue October
I black out in the room again
A busted lip and broken skin
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
Why the mirrors cracked and all I see
Are shards of glass inside of me
Theres voices there to dare me
My fathers here to scare me
And my mother she sits beyond the door
She’s curled up, crying on the floor
“Look at what our son’s done,
When the weight of all the world’s gone wrong.”
Wrong again, Gone f_cking 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 monsters
That are on both of my sides
So I wipe the blood from both their eyes
From all four of their eyes
And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sill
Your hearts torn out
A plastic spoon
Honesty lit up the room
So I stole the pillowcase to clean
This mess I’d made of someone’s dream
Now you see what I’ve done
When the weight of all the world’s gone wrong again
Gone f_cking wrong again…
God, this room is old and wise
And I fall onto the bed and wonder, “How did I get here?”
I was the little boy who would argue with a tree
Go ahead, thump his head, he’ll turn back to normal
And now why is that what i see?
Don’t bother trusting
Don’t bother waiting
Don’t bother changing things that won’t give in to changing.
Just let me go away
I’m packed,
Down whenever
Let’s go…let’s really really go
