What happened to you that made you act so cold?
You say what you want whenever you want then you call it real you call it bold.
Havent you ever been wrong, forgot the lyrics to a song?
It gets old when you’ve got the answers though you’ve never been told.
But seriously, what made you the way you are?
Did life hit you one too many times too hard?
And punch drunk you came lunging back without a target to attack,
Whoa, you got to know.
It’s a heavy weight,
When you been shouldering the stones everywhere you go,
Looking for a chance to throw, its getting too hard to hold,
Cause it’s a heavy weight you know.
Whoa to the one who wanders in your way,
They're gonna pay for things they never did or said for debts they never made.
Didn't you know you’ll never add a measure to your level cutting people down?
Still you try to lay them in the ground.
But you should know you're gonna prove with all the things you do,
What goes around really comes around again.
What goes around really comes around again.
It’s a heavy weight,
When you been shouldering the stones everywhere you go,
Looking for a chance to throw, its getting too hard to hold,
Cause it’s a heavy weight you know.
