Perhaps one of my most favorite Blue songs is Weight of the World because it really lays out a lot of what I've gone through in my own life. Here are the lyrics:
Weight of the World
I black out in the room again
A busted lip and broken skin
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
Why the mirror's cracked and all I see
Are shards of glass inside of me
There's voices there to dare me
My father's here to scare me
My mother sits beyond the door
She's curled up, crying, on the floor
Look at what her son's done
Chorus:
When the weight of all the world's gone wrong
It's gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong
It's gone wrong again
Well liars they leave a guilty trail
And let me tell you something, people
I've been lying for fucking years
That must be why I'm standing in this space
D-d-d-disregarding that I've created these monsters
They're on fucking both of my sides
So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes
From all four of their eyes
And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sill
Your heart's torn out a plastic spoon
When honesty lit up that room
So I stole the pillowcase to clean
This mess I made of someone's dream
Now you see what I've done!
Chorus:
When the weight of all the world's gone wrong
It's gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong
It's gone all wrong again
This room is old and wise
I fall onto the bed and wonder
"How did I get here?"
The little boy who'd argue with a tree
Just fucking thump his head!
He'll turn back to normal
Now why is that what I see?
Don't bother trusting
Don't bother waiting
Don't bother changing things
That won't give in to changing
Just let me go away
I'm packed, whenever
I'm down, whenever
Let's go
Those lyrics are just touching. Even if you don't relate to the specific circumstance you can just feel the emotion they put into their lyrics and music.
