The Heavy from Unimaginable Things by Dana Maragos

I feel the heavy under the weight
Like a ton of gravel dumped at my gate
I tried to hard but I can’t escape
I feel the heavy under the weight.

What can I do, what do I say
When the blue skies fade to shades of grey?
Can’t stop the tears once they start falling through
When I feel the heavy like the rain clouds do.

I feel the heavy under the weight
Like a ton of gravel dumped at my gate
I tried to hard but I can’t escape
I feel the heavy under the weight.

I had a solid plan and a checkered past
The one true love that came along… didn’t last
Got a black and blue tattoo I hide under my sleeve
Like the heavy left on me.

I had to make some deals no one should
Tried to live my life the best I could
Now my mind is restless and I’ll be waiting up all night
Working on a victory, staying in the fight.

I feel the heavy under the weight
Like a ton of gravel dumped at my gate
I tried to hard but I can’t escape
I feel the heavy under the weight.
Lord, won’t you take a little something off my plate?
I feel the heavy under the weight.
I feel the heavy under the weight.
