Guilt is a Weight and it’s Heavy

About the song: This song is entirely fictitious. I promise. It just popped into my head one day in its entirety (I think while I was cleaning my bathroom actually…).

Guilt is a Weight and it’s Heavy

I hate to do this in public
But I saw you with her
You were holding hands and walking down the boulevard
You don’t know that I saw you but you do know who you are
And I am here to tell you that you’ve taken this too far

And all the other listeners will not know who this is to
But the guilty party will think that they all do
Because guilt is a weight and it’s heavy
And it drags us to the ocean floor
And it was mine to carry
Until I realized it’s not my weight
Until I realized it’s not my weight
Until I realized it’s not my weight
It’s yours.
