Weigh Me Down
LORN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watching you sharpen knives
You give me hell but I'll make it
I've still got one good eye
Blind as a fool I can fake it
Telling the truth with lies
But it won't be long 'til I break it
'Cause you know, you know
me down
In Lorn's song "Weigh Me Down," the lyrics describe a toxic relationship where the singer is trapped and unable to escape from their significant other. The opening line, "give me a drug and I'll take it," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is willing to do anything to numb the pain caused by their partner, even if it means taking drugs. The next line, "watching you sharpen knives," suggests that the singer is aware of how dangerous their partner can be. Despite this knowledge, they feel unable to leave and are resigned to enduring the pain.
The lyrics continue with "you give me hell but I'll make it," showing that the singer has a certain resilience and determination to survive. They may be used to their partner's abusive behavior, but they are not willing to give up yet. The line "blind as a fool I can fake it" implies that the singer is pretending that everything is okay when it clearly isn't. They may be trying to hide their true feelings from their partner or from themselves.
The chorus, "but it won't be long 'til I break it, cause you know, you know, you weigh me down," is the singer's realization that they cannot handle the relationship anymore. They have been weighed down by their partner's toxicity, and it's only a matter of time before they reach their breaking point.
