[Verse 1]
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown
[Pre-Chorus]
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
[Chorus]
I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms
[Verse 2]
And is it worth the wait
All this k**ing time?
Are you strong enough to stand
Protecting both your heart and mine?
Who is the betrayer?
Who's the k**er in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound
[Pre-Chorus][x2]
[Chorus 2]
[Verse 3]
This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
(Ohhhh)
Whispering like it's a secret
Only to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart
[Chorus][2]
[Bridge]
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he had me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground
[Chorus]
