Weighed Down - The Horrors

A siren’s melody, how could I know

A silent lullaby to your soul

Caught in a slow decline, and you’re gonna fall

When you don’t know the way at all

And now they see into your head

And they see into your mind in here

And no, that isn’t all how it ends

But will you ever be the same

Before you needed every touch

Before you needed everyone to say

You’re living through a lover’s eyes

And she’s paying all the time

Living in another lifeless place

And now you’re way down

Weighed down, weighed down

Weighed down, weighed down

Didn’t need another life to lead

When you’re weighed down, down

Way, way down

Siren on a winter’s day

Driven mad, you played your part

Now here goes the melody, how bare it is

Because they see into your mind in here

And say that isn’t all how it ends

Did it really have to be this way?

Did you need another touch?

In the shadow of a slow decay

Living through a lover’s eyes

Is there any higher price?

Living in another lifeless place

And now you’re way down

Weighed down, weighed down

Weighed down, weighed down

Didn’t need another life to lead

When you’re weighed down, down

Way, way down

The weight, the weight

The darkness on your shoulders

The weight, the weight

The darkness in your soul

The weight, the weight

The darkness on your shoulders

The weight, the weight

The darkness in your soul but

Don’t let love bring you down

Don’t let love bring you down with me

Don’t let love bring you down

Don’t let love bring you down, you down
