Lyrics The Weight - Editors

The Weight

For a moment I felt the strength of your love
It was lightning, it was lightning
Strike down on me
I’m a lump of meat with a heart beat
Electricity restarts me
Strike down on me, on me
Every day I pray I’m the first to go
Without you I would be lost
I promised myself I wouldn’t talk about death
I know I’m getting boring
I’m a man holding the weight of your love
But without it my strength just isn’t enough
So, strike down on me, on me
Every day I pray I’m the first to go
Without you I would be lost
And I promised myself I wouldn’t sing about death
I know I’m getting boring now
(Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah…)
For a moment I felt the weight of your love
It was lightning, it was lightning
Strike down on me
