Dead Weight Lyrics


Black smoke piercing my eyes

Taking shapes of a familiar man

Calling my name, waking me up

From a dream that was meant to be eternity

Will I give in to this force

That melts my skin, cripples my voice

Will I give in to this light

That turns my heart into fire

My heartbeat is letting me down

My limbs grown into the ground

I am the ashes, I am the dust

Black smoke piercing my throat

Yet in the dark, this yellow coat

This man in a mask, a man of no face

I’m drifting above as he carries my weight

Will I give in to this force

That melts my skin, cripples my voice

Will I give in to this light

That turns my heart into fire

My heartbeat is letting me down

My limbs grown into the ground

I am the ashes, I am the dust

'Mary Anna, are you here?'

'Mary Anna, can you hear?'

'Mary Anna, don’t give up'

Breathe in

Breathe out
