lyrics

When I was leaving you were trying to hide your face behind your hands.
I know you would deny it,
but behind your hands your tears were making tracks.
We both know it’s over.
We were never meant to last beyond the sun.
But though our chapter’s ended, the next part of my life has not yet begun

Oh but weigh me down with lead.
I don’t want to fly, I’ll sink instead.
And on my way down, on my way down,
I’ll change my mind.

The next time I see you we won’t know what to talk about at first.
When this much has been endured the pleasantries seem trivial at best.
The sparks are all but faded.
The ocean years erode it all away.
But memories are razors, and in my mind I see us like today.

Oh but weigh me down with lead.
I don’t want to cry, I’ll drink instead.
And on my way down, on my way down,
You’ll close your eyes.

Oh but weigh me down with lead.
I don’t want to fly, I’ll sink instead.
And on my way down, on my way down,
I’ll change my mind.
