The Weeping Lyrics by Bess Atwell

Light Sleeper

2023

[Verse 1]
Hold me up
Let me sing ’til I’m untouchable
I get what I want
I know how to talk myself out of trouble
[Verse 2]
I saw us as two halves
But two halves of a whole
And now if I can help it
I barely see her at all
[Chorus]
I’m a walking open wound
And I can’t stop the weeping
Don’t say that everything
Happens for a reason
[Verse 3]
Which way’s the water
‘cause I can’t stop asking about it
It’s a lot to be home
But it’s nothing like you said
[Verse 4]
I saw us as four brothers
But four brothers in war
The meal’s on the table
The dinner’s at the door
[Chorus]
I’m a walking open wound
And I can’t stop the weeping
Don’t say that everything
Happens for a reason
Used to daydream I might find
Find hеr with the light on
Don’t say that it’s alright
To be a little frightеned
[Bridge]
Just one window lit, there is a silhouette
Somebody’s vacuuming while everyone’s gone home
I wonder, do they feel alone
I watch the sun go down behind the storage tower
Where they found a body seven years ago
It doesn’t feel like it’s been long enough to live here untouched by that
But everything bothers me
At least if no one else does, I know what I mean
I guess the weeping’s still coming out of me
[Outro]
I guess the weeping’s still coming out of me
I guess the weeping’s still coming out of me
I guess the weeping’s still coming out of me
