Heavy Heart

You shouldn't have to pay for sleep Or tell yourself to smile Why you wanna measure the pain Casting blame on the flames while we're starting the fire? I don't wanna run from you It's makeshift by design Heavy is the heart that holds you down with all its weight Drowns you in the silence of the things you couldn't say Staring down a road, don't know where you are And I can't get close enough to hold your heavy heart I shouldn't have to wander the street Or tell myself to try Change is the thing that you tell me I need Well, I ain't gonna leave, I'm gonna put up a fight Some things I gotta say to you 'Fore you decide Heavy is the heart that holds you down with all its weight Drowns you in the silence of the things you couldn't say Staring down a road, don't know where you are And I can't get close enough to hold your heavy heart Heavy is the heart that holds you down with all its weight Drowns you in the silence of the things you couldn't say Staring down a road, don't know where you are Just let me get close to you and hold your heavy heart
