Blue October Overweight Lyrics

Ever carried the weight of another?
For how long?
I walk as far as they need to recover
For how long?
Ha

(Excuse me)
I wanna carry a piece
of who I was before
So when I hit the wall,
I really hit the wall
I wanna tear away the death again
(death again)
A whiter shade of f___ing meth again
(meth again)
I wanna stick to clues
I wanna to come unglued
I wanna shape the world
to fit the way you move
Should I listen for a dress size?

I owned up
I've grown up
Do you remember me?
I showed up
And, so what if I'm the used to be?
I'm here to tell you
that I'm sorry I was sorry
But I'm happy that you're happy
This is no longer about me

Trade rules
switch sides
for your beautiful eyes
Let him be you
through your beautiful cries
Let him hold you up
so you can touch affordable skies
Live your life just like a dream
Without the pain of goodbyes
Goodbye!

Ever carried the weight of another?
For how long?
I walk as far as they need to recover
For how long?

I been a drunk disrespectful
little street punk
Unlock the back of my trunk
You see
you take this bat
And bash my head
into the street again
No one's around
so I keep beating it

I pull my hair back
look me in the eye
There's a self-destructive meaning
in the bleeding of a guy
It's the guilt of what reality has given me
Making sense of all mistakes
and my stupidity

And when you're sick
you seem to think
You've failed eternally
And that the people you let in
are only crumbling
When you're sick of thinking
life in this recovery
When my decision paved the road
That lies in front of me

So to my friends that even call
but I don't call back
I want you deep inside my heart
upon a hill
It seems to hide sometimes
and run away and wonder
I'm really sick of saying sorry
but I will

Ever carried the weight of another?
For how long?
I walk as far as they need to recover
For how long?

But are we scared to take the ride?
Or dare to look inside?
I'm floating far away (far away)
I'm floating far away
I'm floating far away (so far away)
I'm floating far away

(Ever carried the weight of another?)
(For how long?)

I wanna learn to walk with others
as an equal
I wanna treat the ones who love me
with respect
I wanna tell the world
I'll give them all a piggyback
And try to take away my negative effect
I wanna kiss the girl
I know I'll never lie again
I wanna call my dad
and tell him that I care
I wanna let my brother know
He saved my life a thousand times
Throughout the years
he's been my friend
Who's always there

Ever carried the weight of another?
For how long?
