Weighing Me Down Lyrics - Singles - Marty Cain

early this morning 

i read the paper 

i sipped my coffee without a sound 

as bombs were dropped on countries 

whose names i can't pronounce 

sometimes life 

seems like a cake 

slippin' through the layers of illusion that you bake 

my mind is trippin' on these verbs and these nouns 

i think i'll take a walk downtown 

weighing me down 

there's something keeping me from going downtown 

weighing me down 

i'm confused by these scents and these sounds 

weighing me down 

these thoughts are weights holding me to the ground 

weighing me down 

i know that i gotta stick around 

breathe in the air 

the wind in my hair 

center of the universe isn't even there 

i searched and i looked 

through libraries of books 

hopin' it'd be together like knights and rooks
