We're So Heavy
by: Matthew Good BandGo shoot down the sun and moon
Close your eyes, live at noon
We don't know what we are
But we're tired of it
Go and get your friends
We'll take this city while it's sleeping
Down and out without a doubt
We're down and out
We're so heavy
Can't get out from under it
There's too many of us that don't want to fight it
Hey I've lost too many years to this
I walk behind the crowd
And pick up the garbage that was our future without memory
That made the children of the system we created
And then forgave
