Weight Games

from Out On A Limb by Forever Young

/

lyrics

So let me try to understand the measuring units that you use to weigh the soul of a man. Because I'm feeling kind of heavy, and you're coming up just a little too light.

My dad said, "Son, don't you ever lose sight." And I know that some things have to give eventually. But I'm sick of giving everything.
My body is weak, my heart's not for the taking.

I still hope this guilt, it always haunts you. You're spread so thin that I can see through every single lie that you tell yourself to make it seem like we share a common wealth. And all this time, we were right. All this time, my friends were right. They watched me give it all away, and now I'm taking back what's mine. I'm doing just fine knowing that you're sleeping in his bed when every night spent adds to the debt your soul collects.

So take this advice and never let it go. You've got to learn the value of self respect. without it, there's nothing left.
