Parkway Drive - Dead Weight Lyrics






This is survival.
This is my exile.
I find no solace.
I find no solace beneath a Godless sky.
Will I find shelter in the places the Sun could never find?
Now behold the consequence, the aftermath of ignorance, shackled to my worthless neck.
Give me one reason to resist.
So I slip below.
I can't resist the undertow.
I find no solace beneath a Godless sky.
Will I find shelter in the places the Sun could never find?
Because everything's turning black and I see no hope of turning back.
Cold terror grips my lungs, to let it in would be to accept defeat.
But what's left to fight for?
When I look inside, nothingness confronts me.
Vexed by the hands of time.
This is survival.
I against I.
What's left inside?
So I slip below.
I can't resist the undertow.
I can't resist.
No, I can feel the deadweight.
I can feel the deadweight of my soul dragging me from this world.

  14. A.... L....

    *[Mushroom headbangs intensify]*

    A.... L....

    @denis a guy used this song in the background on a hollow knight video. one of the mobs is banging its head on the ground and this song was perfect for it.

    A.... L....

    @Dddsasul Thank you. Any link or name of the video ?

    A.... L....

    @denis https://youtu.be/K53er9PH5rI?t=445

  18. r.... t....

    Indeimaus anyone?

  19. T.... ....

    Hollow Souls!

    T.... ....

    So that's where all my new subscribers are coming from :P


    Damn, I love this song!

  20. P.... M....

    "NEW SONG" XDDD 7 years ago...but if i hear a simple kick drum...I play this on an air guitar ;)

  21. B.... I....

    Who needs Viagra when we have delicious breakdowns like the one at 3:00.

  22. O.... M....

    Hail Satan.

    O.... M....

    Orion Mcdonald youre blindsighted my friend, Parkway Drive is way past the childish, foolish, and stagnant belief or biased assertion that is Satanism. Winston Mcall is quite the adept in that area of knowledge and experience. Do you know this word "Adept"?

  23. A.... ....

    ''I find no solace beneath a Godless sky.'' What does he mean by that? Aren't they atheistic?

    A.... ....

    One of the main concepts of the whole album is the brutality of truth and the comfort of ignorance. The idea is that God doesn't exist; this harsh fact brings no solace (how to find meaning?), but it's a fact nonetheless.

  24. N.... N....

    Parkway Drive is the best workout music.

    N.... N....

    dude legit. Nothing gets me more pumped than blasting this album when working out

    N.... N....

    bag work its awesome

  25. n.... ....

    this song is fucking heavy.

    n.... ....

    you are useless to me

    n.... ....

    You are useless to everyone

    n.... ....

    Reaperz Nova bush did 9/11

    n.... ....

    Reaperz Nova dick Cheney made money off the Iraq war

    n.... ....

    This is no where near heavy. You want heavy? Gojira, Fit For A King, Ex Deo, Ice Nine Kills, Slipknot, and even Epica ar heavier than Parkway Drive. Parkway Drive would probably fall just below the ones I've mentioned.

  26. J.... ....

    that bass is so loud

  27. D.... G....

    0:17 This is a hard-on! This is my erection!

    D.... G....

    Daniel Grooms This is a volleyball*

  28. R.... S....

    I have no idea why this song reminds me of tron

  29. C.... ....

    "I can feel the deadweight of my soul taking me from this WORLD!"

    C.... ....

    Dragging*

  30. C.... ....

    "I can feel the deadweight of my soul taking me from this WORLD!"

  31. p.... ....

    when the breakdown comes in 3:00 it feels like a fucking anchor tied to your neck and slowly dragging you into ocean's depths. just sayin....

    p.... ....

    +petrobiker theres bloood in the waaaaatuuurrrrrrrrr

    p.... ....

    when it kicked in I agree!

    p.... ....

    DiamondBoogers boneyards saw it live few minths ago boston house of blues!!

  32. E.... D....

    The breakdown 😍

  33. E.... L....

    I get goosebumps from that breakdown. Hot damn

    E.... L....

    at 1:55?!?!? fuck yeah

    E.... L....

    noooooooooooooo0 3:00

    E.... L....

    fuck yes

  34. H.... P....

    THIS IS A VOLLEYBALL

    H.... P....

    H.... P....

    Sehr gut :D

    H.... P....

    😂😂😂

    H.... P....

    Hah! I'll never not hear that now, and I absolutely love the absurdity of it! Thank you!

    H.... P....

    Theo R THIS IS MY LEFT TOE

  35. W.... ....

    airz zafi <3

  36. T.... ....

    I actually don't like parkway drive that much, but this song is actually pretty good.

    T.... ....

    I love this song, but what makes it so much better than their other ones? On this album at least.

    T.... ....

    Yeah kinda weird that this stands out with other bangers on this album, Don't get me wrong this song is fucking great though.

  37. L.... G....

    Awesome. Love the crowbar esque breakdown.

  38. n.... ....

    The level of epic this song is has yet to be properly put into words

  39. I.... R....

    That bass tone at 3:00 onwards blows me away every time, its like Godzilla clearing his throat.Anyone know what set up/tuning he's using?

    I.... R....

    DiamondBoogers it's my favorite album by PWD and yes 90% of the tabs are drop B but Sleepwalker is actually Drop A.

    I.... R....

    John Aranjo sleepwalker is also in drop A

    I.... R....

    Your user name sounds like the name of a metalcore song.

    I.... R....

    I would say its drop B tuning and sansamp (bass distortion pedal).

    I.... R....

    Drop a# and a Heavy distortion

  40. S.... L....

    I do not agree with the sacrilege lyrics, but the guitar throughout this song is Boss.

    S.... L....

    FUCK YOU!

    S.... L....

    +Bvoptics Editer litterally couldnt fucking agree more with you

  41. l.... ....

  64. M.... M....

    You would think that the adverts shown before the PWD song would at least be relevant to their genre.. its a bit strange having the ironically named "Now that's what i call music 83" advertised before it.
    Also, that is not what i call music 83 sounds better. and its true.

  65. A.... A....

    The nothingness confronts me, Hagghhhhh!
