Dead Weight Lyrics by Mint

Magnetism

2006

[Verse 1]
The cobwebs and the guns
There's no use in containing
Your contaminated lungs
So obvious you're straining

[Verse 2]
And when you said "I'm real
Just cloaked in shades of darkness"
It made me lose my feel
For happiness, oh, I guess

[Chorus]
You are a shiny example
Oh, all my friends have set me straight
You're nothing but dead weight
Dead weight
Dead weight

[Verse 3]
Now I'm cutting all the ropes
That tie me down to your low
I'll be flying up the slopes
I'll be surfing on the cash flow

[Chorus]
You are a shiny example
Oh, all my friends have set me straight
You are a shiny example
You fill my ship with useless freight
You're nothing but dead weight
Dead weight
Dead weight
