I am just an open book
For everyone to take a look
Do my insecurities alarm you?
You can fill me up with Novacaine
And Lithium to ease my brain
But it doesn't seem to change my point of view

I was lost and couldn't hear you
Closed my eyes and couldn't see you
But everything about you is revealing
You can take the blame from me
Lock it up without the key
Don't you know the whole world isn't stealing
From you

And sometimes she puts the weight of the world on me
And she don't notice
Sometimes she puts the weight of the world, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

If you wondered what you did to me
I tangled with security
You left me in the street
For dead and bleeding
But your friends all said you went away
But I think I got it right today
Thought that there's a chance that you might need me
Well do you?

And sometimes she puts the weight of the world on me
And she don't notice
Sometimes she puts the weight of the world, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

And you can take that hard look
You can take that
You can take that
And you can take that hard look

I am just an open book
For everyone to take a look
Do my insecurities alarm you?
You can fill me up with Novacaine
Lithium to ease my brain
But it doesn't seem to change my point of view
'Bout you
You

And sometimes she puts the weight of the world on me
And she don't notice
Sometimes she puts the weight of the world, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
