The elephant is pressed against your chest
The ocean depths squeeze your breath
It's the gravity
So much gravity
It's the gravity
So much gravity
Is it rolling backward
Or are you just lying
Is the end too clear
Or should you persevere
You've been shoved abruptly from the nest
They're shoveling dirt on your final rest
It's the gravity
So much gravity
It's the gravity
So much gravity
Is it heavy
Or aren't you trying
Is the end too clear
Or should you persevere
So many cliches
Tell you to seize the day
Every year it seems
You're living someone else's dreams
All the words are piling up on you
And no one left to tell you which are true
It's the gravity
So much gravity
It's the gravity
So much gravity
Is it useless
Or are you just dying
Is the end too clear
Or should you persevere
