The Weight - Shawn Mendes

Lyrics by：Scott Harris/Shawn Mendes/Josh Grant

Composed by：Josh Grant

I want to go back forget that it's over

Painted in black when you left me alone

I never knew she was sleeping next door

With the kid I grew up with

And I can't go back to her

Anymore no more

You tell me you were happier within

You want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away

But then you try to take me back

My heavy heart just breaks

No I can't lift the weight

Put you in the past try to forget you cause it's over

And every time you ask I'll pretend I'm okay

You're in my head

In the middle of the night when I don't feel right

I dream I can hold you

And I can't go back to you anymore yeah yeah

You tell me you were happier within

You want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away

But then you try to take me back

My heavy heart just breaks

But I can't lift the weight and I can't lift the weight

And I can't lift the weigh no I can't life the weight

Yeah you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

And I can't lift the weigh

No I can't life the weight

Yeah you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

And I can't lift the weigh

No I can't life the weight

Yeah you lower your standards and I raise the stakes

And I can't lift the weigh

No I can't life the weight

You tell me you were happier within but you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you

You push me away

But then you try to take it back

My heavy heart just breaks

But I can't lift the weight

And I can't lift the weight

You tell me you were happier within

You want me to stay

You told me that you needed time but you

You push me away

And then you try to take me back

Say someday you will change

But I don't wanna wait
