Cumbersome

She calls me Goliath and I wear the David mask
I guess the stones are coming too fast for her now
You know, I’d like to believe this nervousness will pass
All the stones that are thrown are building up a wall

I have become cumbersome to this world
I have become cumbersome to my girl

I’d like to believe we could reconcile the past
Resurrect those bridges with an ancient glance
But my old stone face can’t seem to break her down
She remembers bridges and burns them to the ground

I have become cumbersome to this world
I have become cumbersome to my girl

Too heavy, too light, too black or too white
Too wrong or too right, damn tonight
Cumbersome
Too rich or too poor, she’s wanting me less
And I’m wanting her more
The bitter taste is cumbersome
No, yeah, no no no, yeah…
There is a balance between two worlds
One with an arrow and a cross
Regardless of the balance, life has become cumbersome
Too heavy, too light, too black or too white
Too wrong or too right, damn tonight
Cumbersome
Too rich or too poor, she’s wanting me less
And I’m wanting her more
The bitter taste is cumbersome
No, yeah, no no no, no no no, yeah, no no no, yeah…
Your life has become cumbersome

Cumbersome ~ Seven Mary Three

With harsh vocals and raging guitars, this song brings me back to early 90s rock. This song is a great song to rock out to, playing it at top volumn and pulling vocals from your stomach. The lyrics are deeper than the typical rock sound the song portrays. There is pain in this song masked by the anger in his voice. It is a strong song and can get me going or calm me down, depending on my mood.
