Derek Webb Heavy lyrics

I have needs I cannot deny them
I was made to want these things
I will stay if you can supply them
If you can't I will trade my ring
For a father who loves me enough
To provide what he's made me to love
It's very good you said so yourself
Then you put it so high on the shelf
I can almost taste it
So I try to make light of things I can't deny are so heavy
Whose weight is so great that your body is crushed underneath
Yet I stand on your grave and I claim that I am tall and I'm steady
But tell the truth
I'm bound to fall on you
It is fruit which I am reaching
It's simply supply and demand
If its abstinence that your preaching
Then you'll have to slap my hand
Then say its best for me

But tonight I just don't believe
There are things I will take at your word
But there are bridges I'm willing to burn
Once the toll is taken
So I try to make light of things I can't deny are so heavy
Whose weight is so great that your body is crushed underneath
Yet I stand on your grave and I claim that I am tall and I'm steady
But tell the truth
I'm bound to fall on you
I have waited long enough (x4)
So I try to make light of things I can't deny are so heavy
Whose weight is so great that your body was crushed underneath
Yet I stand on your grave and I claim I am tall and I'm steady
But tell the truth
I'm bound to fall on you
To fall on you
