You see some friends of mine Said it'd be alright We all had swords drawn Standing in a line And on my signal they all Ran towards the fight With all our hands against the wall Pushing with all our might Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine You see my queen she's been Always by my side Through the storms and rain The sleet and the ice Single file through the forest of Deceit and lies But through the canopy She showed me the rays of light Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine You see I picked a thing or two up along the line Family can be bound by blood and by time And the heaviest weight is the one inside your mind Pressing down on your thoughts every time you close your eyes Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine Slowing down this heavy weight of mine
