Dead Weight Lyrics

If we start cracking at the center
I won't let it break
Hold it together through the weather, it's my DNA
So sick of being your giver
Throwing my soul away
All give, no take

Look what you started
You're turning me heartless
I'm trying my hardest
If I'm being honest

I can't take it over and over
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulder
Nothing changes I'm getting colder
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulders

Dead weight hanging off of my shoulders

If I start cracking at the center
All this goes away
I'm staying numb to my feelings
Dodge 'em like Novocaine
My back is breaking
From taking all of this dead weight
All give, no take

Do you even notice
How easy you got this?
Taking wings off a goddess
If I'm being honest

I can't take it over and over
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulder
Nothing changes I'm getting colder
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulders

Dead weight hanging off of my shoulders

All give, no take
All give, no take
All give, no take
All give, no take

I can't take it over and over
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulder
Nothing changes I'm getting colder
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulders

I can't take it over and over
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulder
Nothing changes I'm getting colder
Dead weight hanging off of my shoulders
