Real World - Woes

Here we go again

You weigh me down with your newest pain

I guess it’s been this way for years

You pin your hopes on me, I disappear

I’m barely holding on

Don’t know why you think that I’m so strong?

Keep pouring out your heart to me

Keep pouring out your heart until I’m gone

You can’t live life like this

I’ve got nothing more to give

And all you wanna do is…

Preach, push the weight of your world down on me

Drag me down til I can’t even breathe

Till I can’t go on

So keep pouring out your heart to me

Keep pouring out your heart until I’m gone

When we’ve only got 10 minutes alone

You only want to talk misery to me

We see life different ways, yeah

Same book different pages

Can’t keep holding you up when you only bring me down

You said it’s because of me

Your words cut deep, they’re troubling

You cried, you wept, gave up and screamed

I heard about it in the songs you wrote

You couldn’t say a thing to me, I know

You never opened up I had to find

A piece of you in notes and thoughts and rhymes

Just because you don’t feel love, don’t live life in the real world

Doesn’t make it right to crucify those of us who cared enough to try

Preach, push the weight of your world down on me
