Official lyrics

(Verse 1)
The world outside is a whirlwind tonight
Chasing down the last of the dying light
Papers scattering, promises made
Everything we built started to fade
But here on my desk, under the lamp's weak glow
Is all that I have left before I let you go.
(Chorus)
My heart is a paperweight, heavy and cold
Keeping the memories from getting too old
Stopping the moments from blowing away
Anchored right here where you used to stay
I can’t move forward, I can’t quite restart
Just holding the past with my paperweight heart.
(Verse 2)
I trace the lines on the map where we drove
The empty chair in our little alcove
The air is still, the silence is loud
A single star hiding behind a cloud
I stack up the pictures, I stack up the lies
Reflected back in my tired eyes.
(Chorus)
My heart is a paperweight, heavy and cold
Keeping the memories from getting too old
Stopping the moments from blowing away
Anchored right here where you used to stay
I can’t move forward, I can’t quite restart
Just holding the past with my paperweight heart.
(Bridge)
They say time heals, they say let it all fly
Let the pain scatter like dust in the sky
But I clutch it tighter, I can’t let it rest
This sorrow’s the one thing I cling to the best
It’s heavy, it’s sharp, it’s all that is real
The only way I remember how to feel.
(Chorus)
My heart is a paperweight, heavy and cold
Keeping the memories from getting too old
Stopping the moments from blowing away
Anchored right here where you used to stay
I can’t move forward, I can’t quite restart
Just holding the past with my paperweight heart.
(Outro)
Holding the past.
It's heavy here in my hand.
I don't think I can ever understand.
The weight is all I have.
The weight is all I have.
