Overweight

Overweight - Blue October

Written by：Justin Furstenfeld

Ever carried the weight of another

For how long

I walk as far as they need to recover

For how long

Ha

I want to carry a piece of who I was

Before

So when I hit the wall I really hit the

Wall

I want to tear away the death again

A whiter shade of f**** meth again

I want to stick to clues I want to come

Unglued

I want to shape the world to fit the way

You move

Oh should I listen for a dress size

I owned up I've grown up do you remember me

I showed up and so what if I'm the used

To be

I'm here to tell you that I'm sorry I was

Sorry

But I'm happy that you're happy

This is no longer about me

Trade rules switch sides for your beautiful eyes

Let him be you through your beautiful cries

Let him hold you up so you can touch affordable

Skies

Live your life just like a dream

Without the pain of goodbyes

Goodbye

Ever carried the weight of another

For how long

I walk as far as they need to recover

For how long

I been a drunk disrespectful little street punk

Unlock the back of my trunk

You see you take this bat

And bash my head into the street again

No ones around so I keep beating it

I pull my hair back look me in the eye

There's a self destructive meaning in the bleeding

Of a guy

It's the guilt of what reality has given me

Making sense of all mistakes and my stupidity

And when you're sick you seem to think

You've failed eternally

And that the people you let in are only crumbling

When you're sick of thinking life in this recovery

When my decision paved the road

That lies in front of me

So to my friends that even call but I don't

Call back

I want you deep inside my heart upon a hill

It seems to hide sometimes and run away and wonder

I'm really sick of saying sorry but I will

Ever carried the weight of another

For how long

I walk as far as they need to recover

For how long

But are we scared

To take

The ride

Or dare to look inside

I'm floating

Far away

I'm floating

Far away

I'm floating

Far away

I want to learn to walk with others as an

Equal

I want to treat the ones who love me with

Respect

I want to tell the world I'll give them all

A piggyback

And try to take away my negative effect

I want to kiss the girl I know I'll never

Lie again

I want to call my dad and tell him that

I care

I want to let my brother know

He saved my life a thousand times

Throughout the years he's been my friend

Who's always there

Floating

Far away

Floating

Far away

For how long
