Death Nesting - The Weight Don’t Lift

Every dawn feels like yesterday’s ghost, Same cold coffee, same empty hope. The mirror don’t lie, but it don’t tell the truth, It just stares back tired, and it looks like proof. The weight don’t lift, it just learns your name, You carry it different, but it feels the same. Some call it grief, some call it life, But I just call it the ache of time. I’ve seen joy come, I’ve seen it go, Like springtime flowers under winter snow. The laugh still echoes, but it fades too fast, And the good things hurt like the things that passed. The weight don’t lift, it just learns your name, You carry it different, but it feels the same. Some call it sorrow, some call it life, But I just call it the cost of tryin’. The sun still rises, but it don’t shine right, Just another promise that slips through the night. And every dream I bury deep, Still grows in the dark where I can’t sleep. The weight don’t lift, it just learns your name, You carry it different, but it feels the same. Some call it misery, some call it life, But I just call it the long wait to die. They weight don’t lift… It just slowly crushes me to death.
