Dead Weight - Despised Icon

Pulling you down, always pulling you down

Dead weight

Let me sink into the abyss

Swim back up to the surface

Pulling you down

Dead weight

I belong in the depths

Let me go and catch your breath

The guilt is killing me

Farewell, I must set you free

Pulling you down, always pulling you down

Dead weight

Tried to resist your charms

Trust me, I fought the urge

Never meant any harm

The time has come to purge

I will not let you drown

Pulling you down, always pulling you down

Dead weight

Pushed you back and shut you out

Sacrificial lamb, run and save yourself

Goddamn

It was for the best, turn another page (Lay me down)

Lay me down to rest, bury all that rage (Toxic)

Six feet in the dirt, one hand reaching up

Dig me up, witness my rebirth

I will face the odds on my own

I’m on my own

Passive aggressive

Under construction, I am

I must shed all this weight

It’s my last stand

There’s no room for you, no more time for us

Grieving day and night, keep your distance

There’s no room for you, no more time for us

Back to being strangers

Pulling you down, always pulling you down

Dead weight

I’m begging you, please just let me sink into the abyss

Swim back up to the surface

Pulling you down

Dead weight

I belong in the depths

Let me go and catch your breath

The guilt is killing me

Farewell, I must set you free

Pulling you down, always pulling you down

Dead weight

The infection spreads through my empty shell

Dump the emotional baggage

Relieve me from my burdens

Rebuild all that is damaged

Swallowing secrets, ingesting so much pain

So much pain
