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
