lyrics

Were you in the other room smoking weed,
For the sake of taking weed,
Or were you getting ready for,
Living without me.

You didn't seem to give a shit
At least at that point,
And I guess I didn't care,
So there was no way to disappoint.

We said final prayers,
And wished we'd find better luck,
And you kissed on my neck,
And told me your sorry, you know it sucks.

If you just carried your weight,
Just for a little bit, just for a little bit,

And gave me a break every now and again,
just for a little bit,

If you just carried your weight,
Just for a little bit, just for a little bit,
Instead of leaving it all to me.

"Do something amazing!"
She said,
"Just please get the fuck,
Out of your head."

Don't lose that sense of pride,
That you've tucked away inside,
And I'm sorry for the things
I've done and said.

We said final prayers,
And wished we'd find better luck,
And you kissed on my neck,
And told me your sorry, you know it sucks.

If you just carried your weight,
Just for a little bit, just for a little bit,

And gave me a break every now and again,
just for a little bit,

If you just carried your weight,
Just for a little bit, just for a little bit,
Instead of leaving it all to me.

about

Jonathan Atkins Mississauga, Ontario

"A singer-songwriter with a devastating ear for harmonies and a delicate touch with lyrics that slide perfectly into a horrid winter. There's a definite Celtic touch, but far sweeter than something like Mumford & Sons." - Andrew Fifield (Metro News)
