Anchor

You hang around my neck like iron

Every step I take you drag me down

I've been drowning in the weight you bring Can't keep pulling you

around

(yeah) Your hands are hooks beneath the surface

Pulling hard against the tide

I gave you everything to keep you

Left myself with nothing inside (hmmmm)

I've tried and tried to keep you breathing

But I'm the one who's running out of air

You're an anchor, you're pulling me down

I'm cutting the rope before I drown

No more carrying all that you bring I'm done being held by

everything (yeah!) (let go!) You never asked to be what broke me

But I never asked to be your shore

There's only so much weight a man can carry

Before he can't rise anymore

You're an anchor, you're pulling me down I'm cutting the rope before

I drown

No more carrying all that you bring

I'm done being held by

everything (yeah!)

(let go!)

I've given all I have And watched it sink below (ahhhh)

This time I'm letting go

(let go!)

You're an anchor, you're pulling me down

I'm cutting the rope before I drown

No more carrying all that you bring

I'm done — done with

everything!

(yeah!) (ahhhh) (done!)
