Lyrics

Verse 1

Kono karada ga doro no you ni omoku kanjiru

I sink

Below the kitchen floorboards where the copper pipes are humming

Rainwater

It seeps inside my boots and turns the leather into lead

Falling down

My shoulders ache from carrying the ghosts of every mistake

I made

Last December when the frost was biting hard against the glass

Broken

The spirit bends but never breaks under the mountain peak

Chorus

It is heavy

Heavy

Heavy

I am pulling on the weight of the world

Sono omosa ni tae kirenai

So heavy

Heavy

Heavy

Post-Chorus

Omoku te

Omoku te

So heavy

So heavy

Verse 2

Anata no kotoba ga mune no oku ni fukaku sasatta

Sharp edges

Like a jagged piece of flint left out in the desert sun

Dry heat

I tried to run away but my legs are anchors in the sand

Chained up

Nobody told me that the gold would turn to iron bars

Cold steel

My heart is beating like a hammer in a lonesome shed

Hard work

Building a monument to things I should have left behind

Chorus

It is heavy

Heavy

Heavy

I am pulling on the weight of the world

Sono omosa ni tae kirenai

So heavy

Heavy

Heavy

Post-Chorus

Omoku te

Omoku te

So heavy

So heavy

Bridge

Give it up

Set it down

Walk away

I cannot lift the sky anymore

The gravity is stronger than my will to survive

Motto tsuyoku naritai noni

I am just a man of clay and dust and bone

Chorus

It is heavy

Heavy

Heavy

I am pulling on the weight of the world

Sono omosa ni tae kirenai

So heavy

Heavy

Heavy

Outro

Still dragging it

I am still dragging it

Kono omomi

Heavy

Omoku te

Heavy

Down low

Deep down

Heavy
