Under the Weight

Verse 1

Heavy hands

Dragging the dusty floorboards

I wake up feeling the weight

Cold air

Cutting through my lungs

Nothing is working out today

Spent hours

Staring at the ceiling fan

Wishing for a different face

Chorus

But the water is rising fast

Yes the water is rising fast

I am sinking under the glass

Sinking under the glass

Give me a reason to stay

Give me a reason to stay

Verse 2

Black ink

Bleeding on the kitchen table

Tearing up the letters I sent

Empty rooms

Echoing the same mistake

I lost where the money went

Broken

Hard to mend a habit

Searching for a single cent

Chorus

But the water is rising fast

Yes the water is rising fast

I am sinking under the glass

Sinking under the glass

Give me a reason to stay

Give me a reason to stay

Bridge

Pull your chin up

Look at the sun through the rain

Dry your eyes now

Walk through the fire and the pain

Find the power

Find the will

Find the way

Burn the shadows

Burn the doubt

Burn the gray

Chorus

But the water is rising fast

Yes the water is rising fast

I am sinking under the glass

Sinking under the glass

Give me a reason to stay

Give me a reason to stay

Outro

We will climb

We will fight

We will survive

I am keeping us alive

I am keeping us alive

Keep us alive
