Do you know my name?
Or are we one and the same?
Well I warn the ways of my song

Am I unwilling? 
Will I just give in?
Can I find a reason to hold on?
When I lose my heartache, under a light, will I lose my weight?
I might lose it, all my weight, but I can’t help but stay

Giving in, the way
In shadows under the shame
Why am I so afraid of my song?

Am I unworthy?
Too weak, too early?
Will I find a reason to hold on?
When I lose my heartache, under a light, will I lose all my weight?
I might lose it, if I wait, but I can’t help but stay

When I was in pieces on my own
Sorting through the seeds I should of sown
When I was in pieces on my own
When I was alone  

Do you know my name?
Are we all of the same
Can you feel the weight…. of my song?

Am I unwilling?
Will I just give in?
Can I find a reason to hold on?
When I lose my heartache, under a light, will I lose all my weight?
I might lose it, if I wait, but I can’t help but stay
When I lose my heartache, under a light, will I lose all my weight?
I won’t lose it, if I wait, I can’t help but stay
