Heavy in Your Arms
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across the ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
I'm so heavy
Heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy
So heavy in your arms
And is it worth the wait
All this killing time?
Are you strong enough to stand?
Protecting both your heart and mine
Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
I'm so heavy
So heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
So heavy, heavy in your arms
This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
Whisper like it's a secret
Only to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart
I'm so heavy, so heavy in your arms
I am so heavy, so heavy in your arms
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he held me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground
I'm so heavy
So heavy in his arms
I am so heavy, heavy
So heavy in your arms
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across the ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
I'm so heavy
Heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy
So heavy in your arms
And is it worth the wait
All this killing time?
Are you strong enough to stand?
Protecting both your heart and mine
Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
I'm so heavy
So heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
So heavy, heavy in your arms
This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
Whisper like it's a secret
Only to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart
I'm so heavy, so heavy in your arms
I am so heavy, so heavy in your arms
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he held me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground
I'm so heavy
So heavy in his arms
I am so heavy, heavy
So heavy in your arms
