We get a little faded the colours go Running out of all our clothes And the flash don't light when the battery's low
When you could stamp a foot down through the floor It's a better plan by far To blow off the roof and let in the dark So we better get started
And if I were you, I'd let go And feel it all over inside like a chemical Cos to tell the truth I don't know If it's ever over
[Chorus:] We don't need a cure for the weight of the world Cause it's floating round in the universe Just swing it like it's tied by a string that you hold And let it go
We could dig a hole right down into Somewhere as deep as black and blue And fill it with a crowd and the sound of right now
And we could carve a tunnel under And find out just how low it goes, it goes And we run out of dirt on the other side when we see the light
Well if I were you, I'd look up And find a place there in the sky where there's room enough To spread it out, and look 'round For where to land when you come down
[Chorus:] We don't need a cure for the weight of the world Cause it's floating round in the universe Just swing it like it's tied by a string that you hold and let it go
Let it go
Let it go
When you could stamp a foot down through the floor It's a better plan by far To blow off the roof and let in the dark, let in the dark, dark, dark So we better get started, started, started Yeah we better get started, started, started
[Chorus:] We don't need a cure for the weight of the world Cause it's floating round in the universe Just swing it like it's tied by a string that you hold And let it go
