lyrics

i'm not getting high enough you're not getting high anymore sucking on ice cubes, dried up on the floor the fog i see's not from the morning before its cigarettes and cup after cup of hot coffee making the same mistakes and not knowing trying to be yourself and not showing true colors are blinding if i couldn't stray far enough too far from each of my homes if i carried the weight in my back pocket, time would turn that to dust please don't tell me this has all been for lust please don't tell me this has all been for lust cause its just.. its cigarettes and cup after cup of hot coffee making the same mistakes and not knowing trying to be myself and not showing true colors are blinding

gravity gravity mmm,mmm gravity, the weight of you and me is bringing me down he was hoping for the better she was hoping for the worst it ain't always sunny weather fact, I hope the storm comes first the gravity the weight of you and me is bringing me down trouble grows where trouble knows I can't guarantee that I will be the one that I'm supposed to be can't guarantee that I'll speak the words that I want to speak can I follow you down ankles holding hands and still be me? gravity the weight of you and me is bringing me down it's bringing me down so shed the extra skin cut the many strings I've got to pick up speed, if I'm gonna get out of this dream buried on a subway in a city street it's hard to see where you are but on a mountaintop, what you can see is all too far we're all made of the same atoms I breathe the bones of every passing soul aching irie desparate madness in the pit of my stomach growing cold it feels good to me said it feels good to me feels good to me feels good to me the waves will never stop crashing the tides will never be still the treasure of a beating heart will forever be gold these forces of attraction, I've had my fill of this gravity the weight of you and me is bringing me down is bringing me down the gravity, the weight of you and me is bringing me down feels good to me, feels good to me the gravity, the weight of it all is bringing me down ..... it feels so good to me your gravity and the feeling on the ground empathy is addictive to me I drink too much in, the bottle full and then I can't see feeling all the feels in everybody I see the weight on your shoulders is too much to bear, you see too much to bear, you see too much to bear, you see too much to bear, you see too much to the gravity is too much to bear on me I'm such a small girl can't you see world, why do you do this to me? I'm just trying to live the life I want to lead please don't take that privilege away from me my soul's already tattered and teathered and weak in the knees
