Weight of the World Lyrics

Cover art for Weight of the World lyrics by Evanescence

This is a very strong song. I like the lines "I won't be held down by who I used to be" I keep telling that myself all the time.

I think it's about someone who doesn't let you be who you really are and you feel pressured. When you try to free yourself the person still clings to you thinking he loves you but you realize that you can only be happy if the person leaves you and "lets go".
