Lyrics

Intro

Oh oh

Mmm

Chorus

Sorry for the heavy weight

For the holes I left inside

For the dreams I threw away

While you both tried and tried

I was never who you wanted

Just a shadow on the wall

Sorry that I couldn't stand

When you watched me start to fall

Verse 1

Burden on your back

Carried all my secrets while I lived in black

Missing every mark

Left you both to wander through the bitter dark

Waste of all my time

Waiting for a mountain I could never climb

Forgive the messy end

Hardest part was losing you my oldest friend

Pre-Chorus

I am watching

I am waiting

I am finally calm

Chorus

Sorry for the heavy weight

For the holes I left inside

For the dreams I threw away

While you both tried and tried

I was never who you wanted

Just a shadow on the wall

Sorry that I couldn't stand

When you watched me start to fall

Bridge

Look up at the white moon

I'll see you in the garden

I'll see you in the kitchen

I'll see you in the quiet

Pulling all the weeds out

Keeping every porch light on for you

Pre-Chorus

I am watching

I am waiting

I am finally calm

Chorus

Sorry for the heavy weight

For the holes I left inside

For the dreams I threw away

While you both tried and tried

I was never who you wanted

Just a shadow on the wall

Sorry that I couldn't stand

When you watched me start to fall

Chorus

Sorry for the heavy weight

For the holes I left inside

For the dreams I threw away

While you both tried and tried

I was never who you wanted

Just a shadow on the wall

Sorry that I couldn't stand

When you watched me start to fall
