Heavyweight

Try to be the best you can be Never mind the days you're unhappy Put on your face, regret your mistakes And don't forget your place Try to lead by example Said to me, you can't be fragile Take it on the chin, repent your sins Then scrub your skin So you can throw me into deep water And tell me it'll make me stronger You throw me to the waves Then act surprised when I need to be saved It's a heavy weight On a frightened face But I can't complain When it's just a game Try to be a little colder So they know they can't take over But don't be cruel, make sure you're cool Be the latest news The lights went out, they won't be found Not safe or sound, but I stay devout You killed the joy, I felt the void So I made some noise like a wind-up toy So you can throw me into deep water And tell me it'll make me stronger You throw me to the waves Then act surprised when I need to be saved It's a heavy weight On a frightened face But I can't complain When it's just a game So you can throw me into deep water And tell me it'll make me stronger You can throw me into deep water And tell me it'll make me stronger
