Our Lady Peace – Heavyweight lyrics
I'm looking for a sign
That I can't see
The good, the bad
It's somewhere in between
These warning signs
And this urban grinds
Me down
The kids are building fires
By their homes
The smoke is sending signals
Out in code
These safety suits
And these parachutes
I don't know
Gotta stop, drop, roll
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
I'm choking on the words
That I can't say
My lungs are full
But everything's
Misplaced
And these junkyard dogs
And these cherry bombs
Go off
The sun, the sky, the moon
Will fall apart
Come tumbling down
Just like a house of cards
And these fire escapes
And this lush landscape
It fades
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
Be weightless
I can feel this heavyweight
Hanging around my neck
I can feel your heartbeat
Bringing me back
Back again
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
Be weightless
Be weightless
That I can't see
The good, the bad
It's somewhere in between
These warning signs
And this urban grinds
Me down
The kids are building fires
By their homes
The smoke is sending signals
Out in code
These safety suits
And these parachutes
I don't know
Gotta stop, drop, roll
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
I'm choking on the words
That I can't say
My lungs are full
But everything's
Misplaced
And these junkyard dogs
And these cherry bombs
Go off
The sun, the sky, the moon
Will fall apart
Come tumbling down
Just like a house of cards
And these fire escapes
And this lush landscape
It fades
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
Be weightless
I can feel this heavyweight
Hanging around my neck
I can feel your heartbeat
Bringing me back
Back again
When all these walls come down
They'll shake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
When all these stars hit ground
They'll wake us
We fight not to be
Not to be weightless
Be weightless
Be weightless
