lyrics

I pull the car into my drive,
turn the key, and power down.
Just put it to sleep for a week or two,
a month or four, a year or more.

The rhythm of the days drones on,
the hum is deafening, just listen to the noise.
The power and the pull overtake,
become threatening, don’t listen to those boys.

Tell me what worries you
What weighs you down?

Roll this stone off my chest and let me breathe again.
Roll this stone off my chest, just let me breathe.

I pay the rent where no one lives,
insure the car that no one drives.
Pretend each day is still the same,
among the comfortable lies.

But my job may not be there in the morning
when I wake. What happens then?
I wear the face that keeps me safe.
Do you still know me? Now I don’t look the same.

Tell me what worries you
What weighs you down?

Roll this stone off my chest and let me breathe again
Roll this stone off my chest, just let me breathe.
Roll this stone off my chest and let me breathe again
Roll this stone off my chest, just let me breathe.

Through the weeks I’ve built a wall
that none can breach or so it seems.
I cover myself and stay within,
avoid the tainted breath, that would steal my dreams.

And the weight it grows each passing day,
not knowing what to do or when I fell beneath it all.
It changes minds this fear we feel,
don’t think it’s real, rescue me.

Tell me what worries you
What weighs you down?

Roll this stone off my chest and let me breathe again
Roll this stone off my chest, just let me breathe.
Roll this stone off my chest and let me breathe again
Roll this stone off my chest, just let me breathe.
just let me breathe.
