Lyrics Worth the Weight - Emily Hackett

I keep chasin' the light, wishing on stars that are disappearing
So hard, standing up right, breaking my back on a load I carry

They say, it's okay, no, this won't last forever
I know, I hope, but it's still now or never

I keep on waitin' (oh-oh-oh)
For something to save me (oh-oh-oh-oh)
But this world is mine to take

If it's bringin' me down
Gotta knew what I knew better
Ask myself, is it worth the weight?

I'm stuck spinning my wheels
Running on fumes that are suffocating
There's no catching your breath
'Cause a day you rest is a day you're wasting

Move on, stay strong
Gotta keep myself together
It burns, and I bend
But I won't break under pressure

I keep on waitin' (oh-oh-oh)
For something to save me (oh-oh-oh-oh)
This world is mine to take

If it's bringin' me down
Gotta knew what I knew better
Ask myself, is it worth the weight?

I can see my road getting clearer
I can see the end getting nearer
My past looks good in the mirror
Fading out of view

I know it still won't be easy
As long as this heart's still beating
I won't let go 'cause I need to know

(I keep on waitin') I keep on waitin'
(Something to save me) for something to save me
This world is mine to take

If it's bringin' me down
Gotta knew what I knew better
Ask myself, is it worth the weight?

Is it worth the weight?
Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh
Is it worth the weight?
Is it worth the weight? Yeah
