Feels like the weight of the world
Like God in heaven gave me a turn
Don't cling to me, I swear I can't fix you
Still in the dark, can you fix me
Freefall, freefall, all through life
If you love me
Then let go of me
I won't be held down
By who I used to be
She's nothing to me
Feels like the weight of the world
Like all my screaming has gone unheard
And oh, I know you don't believe in me
Safe in the dark, how can you see
Freefall, freefall, all through life
If you love me
Then let go of me
I won't be held down
By who I used to be
If you love me
Then let go of me
I won't be held down
By who I was
If you love me
Then let go of me
I won't be held down
By who I used to be
Quote from Amy:
I live for the rock songs. With the line-up changing, I think a lot of people thought it would be more of the "My Immortal" stuff. But "My Immortal" was Ben [Moody]'s song! I was always trying to pull us in a crazier direction. Songs like "Weight of the World" and "Sweet Sacrifice" and "All That I'm Living For" are so amazing to me because of the adrenaline. Especially when we play them live.
