The Weight

歌詞

Slept with a constellation night light on When I was a kid So when I woke up Fearing you were gone I'd look up and it was insignificant Since then I have expanded my orbit To reaffirm my importance in the grand scheme If I'm made up of molecules They all pretend I have form But I'm not sure I've learned that I am matter I don't want to matter no more Don't got much meat on my bones Not making it through the winter But I've gotten so good At hiding as I get thinner Don't want to take up much space So I get the best hiding place How can you tell me I'm safe If I am seen?

(Anymore) I've seen the shape of my shadow Shrink and expand over time It's tough to sink when it's shallow But I'll pull it off if I try
