Hands Like Houses - Weight (Undone) lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm down below where the floor is out of focus Pent up and played down, rained in and worn out Picking away at the studs in the boards They're all too familiar, I've been here before [Pre-Chorus 1] The air is like lead and I've swallowed what I've said I'm a broken machine and a match already burned I'm quiet, all despite the raging in my head Collapsed inside and out until my strength can return [Chorus] I'm undone All I know is the weight of the world So empty and so uninspired Sorrow and sleep and disbelief Caught up in the weight of the world [Verse 2] I'm down below where it's silent and it's safe Resounding with the question of "Where to, from here?" I know my direction, I know what it takes But I'm weak and I'm weightless with everything to fear [Pre-Chorus 2] I write about what's real to me when all I feel is make believe But I won't say there's nothing left There's everything, but just out of reach [Chorus] [Bridge] I'm not helpless (I'm not helpless) I'm not hopeless (I'm not hopeless) But I don't believe in hope on its own No spine and no substance [Chorus] [Outro] It's time to see the floor sink around me Pushed down with my two bare hands and Now I'm stronger for whatever comes Let the blood rush as I rise to my feet
