Dead Weight Lyrics by Polterguts

Decomposer

0

I'll my life I've been a charity case another way to feel good of sacrifices you make and at the end of the day when you say your grace I hope you mention my name like I'm some soul to be saved

Cause we used to view the world from the same place. The only difference in us was the faith you claimed, so now it's stuck in your brain ingrained that I need changed, a poor sinner who needs carried by your angel's wings

So you can keep praying if it gives you peace, and you can keep saying that I need to be free. I agree you should leave, but you pull from beneath with your speech how I need a faith so deep

And now you think I'm so weak, I need you to hold me, you think I need you when you're just as lonely. And you want to be my anchor but I'm sick of you pulling. Pulling me down

Dead weight, you remind me everday, I don't need your anchor if I'm just trying to escape
Dead weight, reminded every day, I don't need your anchor I'm only trying to escape

All roads lead to a 6 foot hole, and we're all scared of crossing through the great unknown. But your hope provokes you to be judgmental, your damning words from inside your jail cell
All your life you've been a basket case, build your casket, dig your grave. years go by but you don't change, judging other people just like me

At the end of you life when we say goodbye, I hope you think of me just one last time. How you cursed the way I lived my life knowing the whole time you were dead inside

Dead weight, you remind me everyday. I don't need your anchor if I'm just trying to escape
Dead weight, reminded every day. I don't need your anchor if I'm just trying to escape
