Weigh You Down - Alive In Standby

I lied straight to your face

When I said that it was over

Two damn years and I just find myself getting older

Sometimes I wish it could still be us

‘Cause I’d rather hold you than my grudge

Carry me away

This time I want you with me every day

I hope you don’t become

That girl from back at home

‘Cause I can’t bare the thought

Time will tell girl

But I want you to know

Be careful where you throw your words around

Because they’ll always weigh you down

Under pressure

It leaves me breathless

You can change my mind

I will be reckless

You’ve got a pretty face

But not the heart to match it

I give you everything

And watched you waste your chances

My biggest fear is that

We’ll lose touch

‘Cause my only crime is that

I cared too much

I hope you, oh God I swear…

You better not become that girl from back at home

‘Cause I can’t bare the thought

Time will tell girl

But I want you to know

Be careful where you throw your words around

Because they’ll always weigh you down

Why did you tell me that you’d never be like them?

And all those times we spent together, was it for nothing?

Nobody wins if we fall back, then give in

We never learn from our sins

We fall apart

You’re so uptight

And always so quick to fight

I swear you’re scared I just might

Treat you right

I hope you don’t become

That girl from back at home

‘Cause I can’t bare the thought

Time will tell girl

But I want you to know

Be careful where you throw your words around

Because they’ll always weigh you down

Nobody wins if we fall back then give in

We never learn from our sins

We fall apart
