Weight of Everything
Write me a response
To the news I've been given
In forty words or less
Can you make sense of this
Now everything I work for
Is dying in the living room
And everything I live for
Is eating up my savings
And now
The loneliest of hellos
Prepare me for the worst
For the sorriest of goodbyes
Made me wish you left a note
And if there's one thing
That I can trust
It's the weight of everything I lost
Cause as I hold them in my hands
I was taking down the measurements
Laying on some fresh paint
On my do not resuscitate
This body is an anchor
That floats to the surface
Now everything I sink towards
Are digging their holes deeper
And the fastest way to the shore
Is eating up my lungs
And all this wading does
Is leave marks on my thick skin
I made no use of knowing
That our time was at an end
Now every moment's notice
Is a half heart reminder
And every waking moment
Is a souring of the note
And now
The loneliest of hellos
Prepare me for the worst
For the sorriest of goodbyes
And I'll do what you won't
And if there's one thing
That I can trust
It's the weight of everything I lost
Cause as I hold them in my hands
I was taking down the measurements
So that I know how light I'll be
When they all eventually leave me
If there's one thing that I can trust
It's weight of everything I lost
This fire won't burn anymore
This candle's been safely ignored
This fire won't burn anymore
This candle's been safely ignored
And if there's one thing
That I can trust
It's the weight of everything I lost
Cause as I hold them in my hands
I was taking down the measurements
So that I know how light I'll be
When they all eventually leave me
If there's one thing that I can trust
It's weight of everything I lost
To the news I've been given
In forty words or less
Can you make sense of this
Now everything I work for
Is dying in the living room
And everything I live for
Is eating up my savings
And now
The loneliest of hellos
Prepare me for the worst
For the sorriest of goodbyes
Made me wish you left a note
And if there's one thing

If there's one thing that I can trust
It's weight of everything I lost
