Lyrics for Something Heavy

Stumble 'round the village with you again I'm clapped out on up and downers tonight Both know what we're in for tomorrow Drinking anything as a preemptive strike God, she's full of pain and I know it God, I can't get a smile, but I doubt we'll get We both know that we're gonna regret it Selfishly wish we stayed at such a lonely night Everybody here's got something heavy Shoulder in a while if you just want a night off You and I are dangerous lovers Whittling away at this bag of rocks Carrying each other up the avenue The city's never felt so dead Half the joint's bummed 'bout that Covid My friends reached for the rope and tied it Oh, God, how come we keep missing signals? We almost lost joy on that hard, dark night She grabbed me by the arm, kissed me to this song The anger that I carried like a rock my whole life Everybody here's got something heavy Shoulder in a while if you just want a night off You and I are dangerous lovers Whittling away at this bag of rocks Drinking for two down at Office Bar This place has really lost its charm And working on the words that I wanna say But you have still been around Oh, God, what's in the water in this town? So many good people falling victim to the dark So, call me if you're down, help you come around You can't unlove a ruined boy until it's sorted out Everybody here's got something heavy Shoulder in a while if you just want a night off You and I are dangerous lovers Whittling away at this bag of rocks Everybody here's got something heavy Everybody here's got something heavy Everybody here's got something heavy Everybody here's got something heavy Stumble 'round the village with you again I'm clapped out on up and downers tonight
