Heavyweight - Cate

I saw you last week for the first time

You look so free without me on your mind

You always said I was reckless

Called me «too much to take in»

I thought of the night that we caved in

You gave up quick and I get it

I fought like a hero on a bender

You said I’m a poor contender

And I tried to play the heavyweight

Put up a front

Like I could take anything

But it wasn’t enough

For me to shake this feeling

The thought of you thinking

I’m just a heavy weight

Was I just a heavy weight?

Oh was I just heavy weight?

Was I just heavy weight?

It was the night you picked me up when I was all alone

You told me you were scared I was out of control

I’m sorry I was so reckless

Remember when you used to like this

It was the night that we swam in your neighbour’s pool

Pretending we were sharks, let me hang off you

Dove too deep in the shallow

You cleaned my bloody teeth in the bathroom

And I tried to play the heavyweight

Put up a front

Like I could take anything

But it wasn’t enough

For me to shake this feeling

The thought of you thinking

I’m just a heavy weight

Was I just a heavy weight?

Oh was I just a heavy weight?

Was I just a heavy weight?

I could tell that you were tired trying to keep afloat

Maybe I’m just better off being on my own

And I tried to play the heavyweight

Put up a front

Like I could take anything

But it wasn’t enough

For me to shake this feeling

The thought of you thinking

I’m just a heavy weight

Was I just a heavy weight?

Oh was I just a heavy weight?

Was I just a heavy weight?

Was I just a heavy weight?

Was I just your heavy weight?

Was I just a heavy weight?

Was I just your heavyweight?
