Stones

Oh I must have been a child
She looked me dead into the eyes
And told me how I'm boring when I'm quiet
I still think of new years eve
He told me what he thought of me
And I work it round my head like it's a nightshift

It fills a space in my head
It's the weight on my chest

Crying over little things
Flying home to family
Set the table for the past I bring along
Still feel like a little kid
And I get so damn sensitive
You say nothing rather than say something wrong

If only I could take your pain
All this fighting goes to waste
You say these stones you carry round
All they do is bring you down
I can see the way you keep your head
Above the water now
Darling open up your hand
And let go of those you had
Here's the only one
That you will need to carry on from now

When I spin out of control
And I'm racing round my thoughts
I remember all the words
That got me out of this before

It fills a space in my head
It's the weight on my chest

You say these stones you carry round
All they do is bring you down
I can see the way you keep your head
Above the water now
Darling open up your hand
And let go of those you had
Here's the only one
That you will need to carry on from now

Fills the space in my head
Lifts the weight off my chest
Fills the space in my head
Lifts the weight off my chest

You say these stones you carry round
All they do is bring you down
I can see the way you keep your head
Above the water now
