Dead Weight Lyrics by Gold Steps

Louder Than Words

0

[Verse 1]
Bracing myself for the watershed
I can see your levy break
I’m caught in the path
Destruction and self-hate
Both your middle names
Don’t you get tired of living afraid?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don’t you get tired of living afraid?

[Chorus]
Like everything’s darker on this side of town
Hide under covers and keep your head down
Unhappy at your core, nothing ever goes your way
Just sit there and mourn all your past better days
Past better days

[Verse 2]
Cry for attention
When I bend you scream
“I don’t want to talk about it”
Your bitter words keep ringing in my head
How can I listen whеn you talk like that?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
How can I listen when you talk likе that?

[Chorus]
Like everything’s darker on this side of town
Hide under covers and keep your head down
Unhappy at your core, nothing ever goes your way
Just sit there and mourn all your past better days
Past better days

[Bridge]
You always remember the bad
I can’t remember the last smile we shared
Dead weight, you pull me under
Consuming all I had to offer

[Chorus]
Cause everything’s darker on this side of town
Hide under covers and keep your head down
Unhappy at your core, nothing ever goes your way
Just sit there and mourn all your past better days
Everything’s darker on this side of town
Hide under covers and keep your head down
Unhappy at your core, nothing ever goes your way
Just sit there and mourn all your past better days
Past better days
