[Verse 1] Heavy bar rests across my throat Dead weight dragged behind a sinking boat The floorboards warp under every step Counting every promise I never kept [Pre-Chorus] Air gets short and the teeth lock tight Working all day just to lose all night Tension pulls until the wire snaps Underneath the weight of my own traps [Chorus] And it pushes down, hard and fast Nothing built here was made to last You can’t run off when the concrete splits Or hide from the damage where the hammer hits It’s a iron lock, it’s a closing door And I can’t hold this up anymore [Verse 2] Bricks fall down from a crooked wall Staring at the ground after every fall Boots get stuck in the heavy mud Washing off grease, but it feels like blood [Bridge] Gravity wins The pressure stays Adding the damage Counting the days [Chorus] And it pushes down, hard and fast Nothing built here was made to last You can’t run off when the concrete splits Or hide from the damage where the hammer hits It’s a iron lock, it’s a closing door And I can’t hold this up anymore
