The Weight of Yesterday

[Verse 1] SILENCE… broke us One refused to speak The other… nothing to say Enemies instead of lovers A stalemate born in pain [Verse 2] HISTORY… unable to move past One gave forgiveness The other… couldn’t forget Opposite directions Repulse instead of attract [Verse 3] DIVISION… over time One heart torn out The other… self-imploding Two lives destroyed A house wrecked by storm [Pre-Chorus] PAIN… the common bond One, what was and is The other… guilt and shame Cause and effect Shattered pieces [CHORUS] Under the WEIGHT of YESTERDAY SILENCE is our GRAVE Where all our words have DROWNED ECHOES of what we LOST Still CALLING through the DARK Two souls that BROKE By the THINGS we couldn’t SAY TOGETHER… we DIE in DIFFERENT WAYS (CHOIR – LOW HARMONY:) Under the weight… Silence is our grave… Echoes calling… calling… We fall… we break… we fade… [Verse 4] DECISIONS… can’t take back One moving forward The other… looking back Crawling and dragging Heavy, the weight of yesterday [Verse 5] THE FUTURE… destroyed One discovered death The other… escaped the pain Living with an open wound Healing not till death [CHORUS] Under the WEIGHT of YESTERDAY SILENCE is our GRAVE Where all our words have DROWNED ECHOES of what we LOST Still CALLING through the DARK Two souls that BROKE By the THINGS we couldn’t SAY TOGETHER… we DIE in DIFFERENT WAYS (CHOIR – LOW HARMONY:) Under the weight… Silence is our grave… Under the weight Under the weight Under the weight Under the weight Silence is our grave… Echoes calling… calling… We fall… we break… we fade… We fade [Outro] SILENCE… forever loud One bearing the weight The other… nothing at all Echoes of haunting past Walking the path of time… alone
