You feel the weight of the world

And your back's are not that strong

Can you carry a tune

Or is the weighting forever so long?

Do ya freeze in the heat?

Wear sunglasses at night?

And are you beating my meat

To the sound of the same old drum?

It's time to shed your skin

And with it promises

And we bite down hard and feel

The weight of the world

Yeah, there's a song in them words

Though they leak through your teeth

You're shakin' hands with the right

While your cutting my throat with the left

Yeah, it's the weight of the world

When ya lay down with dogs

After humpin' your leg

They just leave you with flees and just split

It's time to shed your skin

And with it promises

And we bite down hard and feel

The more I know, the less I understand

Try not to think, out loud

The more I know, more I know, more I know

More I feel the weight of the world

It's the weight of the world

When ya lay down with dogs

All the names have been changed

But the story is always the same

It's time to shed your skin

And with it promises

And we bite down hard and feel

The more I know, the less I understand

Try not to think, out loud

The more I know, more I know, more I know

More I feel the weight of the world

Weight of the world
