dead weight
bowersox, crystal
don't go beating dead horses
all things impossible in being nice
dreams don't take to your soul
it's the only thing no one can take
just take down your load and wipe your frown
if you're holding on to dead weight
it's just holding you down
oh you're gonna sink or swim
lying on a nothing set in black and white
each moment means more than the last
so i say we waste our time
on cigarettes and cheap red wine
we'll sing well into the night
that light will be coming up fast
just take down your load and wipe your frown
if you're holding on to dead weight it's just holding you down
oh you're gonna sink or swim
just take down your load and wipe your frown
if you're holding on to dead weight it's just holding you down
oh you're gonna sink or swim
if you don't know i'll tell you
