Heavy as Lead Songtext
von Leyla McCalla

This old house might swallow us whole
Begins with our family and soon it comes ′round to our soul
We're trying to grab ′hold of what we can't control
Always living here on the edge
And that little heart, so little and complete
Doesn't worry ′bout making ends meet
As the dust is settling on every street
I am filling with dread


And that′s got me feeling, feeling heavy as lead

Don't tell me everything′s gonna be alright
Don't tell me everything′s gonna be alright

And I don't mean to be so unkind
I′ve just got too much weighing in on my mind
I'm always afraid I'm falling behind
Always reaching to get ahead

And that′s got me feeling, feeling heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead
Heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead
Heavy as lead, lead, lead, lead
