[intro|guitar|no vocals] [verse|rapid fire|snarling|agressive] You want my wisdom And blow me off, everytime Saying its not worth the climb You want gold n’ jewels Without a map You want the reward But you don’t wanna pay the piper I gave you chances I gave you time But I’ve got mountains Of my own to climb [pre-chorus|screamed|agressive] STAND UP! Get off your knees! No one’s coming to set you free! Take your life—or die in defeat! [chorus|loud] DEAD! WEIGHT! You’re draggin me down! DEAD WEIGHT! I won’t always be around! DEAD! WEIGHT! Get your life together! don't pull me down [verse 2|rapid fire| snarled|] Afraid of ghosts that’ll never appear You’re feeding your own fears You bitch n’ moan That you’re all alone Don’t ask me why Don’t ask me when I ain’t got time for your games i'm fightin' to live a-gain! [pre-chorus] WAKE UP! Quit drifting with the tide! You want respect? Then take the helm and steer your life! [chorus|loud] DEAD! WEIGHT! You’re draggin me down! DEAD WEIGHT! I won’t always be around! DEAD! WEIGHT! Get your life together! don't pull me down [break down] GET. OFF. YOUR. KNEES. [wicked E standard tuning solo|triplets] [chorus|loud|shouted|gang shouted] DEAD! [pause] WEIGHT! You’re draggin me down! DEAD! [pause] WEIGHT! I won’t always be around! DEAD! [pause] WEIGHT! Get your life together! [outro|chugging guitars] Get your shit together boy!
