Dead Weight Lyrics

The cobbwebs and the guns
There's no use in containing
Your contaminated lungs
So obvious you're straining
And when you said "I'm real
Just cloaked in shades of darkness"
It made me lose my feel
For happiness so I guess

You are a shiny example
Oh, all my friends have set me straight
You're nothing but dead weight
Dead weight
Dead weight
Now I'm cutting all the ropes
That tie me down to your low
I'll be flying up the slopes
I'll be surfing on the cashflow
You are a shiny example
Oh, all my friends have set me straight
You are a shiny example
You fill my ship with useless freight
You're nothing but dead weight
Dead weight
Dead weight
