Heavy Work - Swamps

I dream that you’re drowning

That love never finds you

That your skin and bones are ravaged by the wolves

Love can’t find me

Just disease

This plague has found me

I can’t breathe

I was never enough

This plague is heavy again

Working its way to my spine

You casted your stones so I’ll bury your bones

Keep you out of my mind

I’ve locked myself for eternity but it’s I who holds the key

You’ve had your grip for eternity but it’s I who holds the key

Heavy work

Accept my twist of fate

Push the weight

Until my dying day

I was never enough

This plague is heavy again

Only the wicked deserve this

You casted your stones

So I’ll bury your bones

As the weight crushes down on you

Reality is that I’ll struggle forever

Until my days are through

Until I’m six feet under

Give me that peace

Please do that for me

Grant me no light

As the weight crushes down on me

Heavy work until my days are through

Heavy work til I’m through

With the work on my back

And the rest on my soul

I push the weight of reality

Until I’m six feet underground
