Look at this big eyed fish swimming in the sea
Oh how it dreams he wants to be a bird, swoopin', divin’ through the breeze
One day, caught a big old wave up on to the beach, now he's dead you see,
Beneath the sea is where a fish should be
But oh god under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side

Story of a man decided not to breathe
He turned red, then blue, purple, colorful indeed
No matter how his freinds begged and bleeded
The man would not concede
And now he's dead, you see, the silly man should know you got to breathe

But oh God,
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh god
But under the weight of life
Things seem better on the other side
No way, no way, no way out of here

See the little monkey, sitting in his monkey tree
One day, decided to climb down [bad word] off to the city
Look at him now, lost and tired, living in the street
As good as dead, you see, you are a monkey thus stay up the tree

But oh God,
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh god
But under the weight of life
Things seem so much better on the other side
No way, no way, no way out of here

But oh God,
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh god
But under the weight of life
Things seem so much better on the other side
No way, no way, no way out of here

But oh God,
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
But oh God,
But under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
No way, no way, no way out of here

But oh God,
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh god
But under the weight of life
Things seem so much better on the other side
No way, no way, no way, no way...
