Weight of the World
Lock it up, my pretender
I thought I would know you better
Like a child high above the weather
I saw you sinking with the weight of the world
And all the cuts are getting deep now
And all you want to do is sleep now
We could go on, but I don't really see how
And here we are at the edge of the world
Mockingbird, you come to my window,
in the dead of night, to see if we're alright
The moonlight in your eyes, and then you're gone
It seems like so long ago there
I watched you pack it up and go there
And still, I cry cuz I don't know why
We could never stand the weight of the world
Mockingbird, you come to my window,
in the dead of night, to see if we're alright
The moonlight in your eyes, and then you're gone
I thought I would know you better
Like a child high above the weather
I saw you sinking with the weight of the world
And all the cuts are getting deep now
And all you want to do is sleep now
We could go on, but I don't really see how
And here we are at the edge of the world
Mockingbird, you come to my window,
in the dead of night, to see if we're alright
The moonlight in your eyes, and then you're gone
It seems like so long ago there
I watched you pack it up and go there
And still, I cry cuz I don't know why
We could never stand the weight of the world
Mockingbird, you come to my window,
in the dead of night, to see if we're alright
The moonlight in your eyes, and then you're gone
