Heavy on the Soul
Music &Lyrics by: Jason Fillion
Key of: C minor

Intro:
Verse#1:
Almost what I hoped for…so much for finding comfort…
Burrowed in a hole…
I’d sleep instead…I lie here…flattened as a board…
Broken at the hinge…flapping in the wind…
My filthy wings and chapped lips…
A memory so tired…
History repeats… then…history repeats

Pre-Chorus:
Now I know…and for so long I couldn’t see it…
But what the mind knows the heart doesn’t always follow.

Chorus:
It’s become too much to hold…too heavy on the soul…
Too painful to explain…It’s not a heaviness of weight…
Just a chamber in a hollow…
Bitter pill I have to swallow…
Filling frozen in the seam….
The hinge is flapping in the wind…..

Solo:

Verse #2:
When I asked if I belong here…
The answer could have been…the opposite of leave…
Give me a hand with my things…
Don’t act like you feel sorry…
I know you picked this time…
You weren’t unsure…you said it blank and cold…

Pre-Chorus:
Now I know for so long I couldn’t see it…
But what the mind knows the heart won’t always follow…

Chorus:
It’s become too much to hold…too heavy on the soul…
Too painful to explain…It’s not a heaviness of weight…
Just a chamber in a hollow…
Bitter pill I have to swallow…
Filling frozen in the seam….
The hinge is flapping in the wind…..
It’s become too much to hold…too heavy on the soul…
Too painful to explain…not a heaviness of weight…
Not a heaviness of weight…it’s not a heaviness of wieght
