The chorus is kinda messed up because Ed, Dean, and Ross are all playing
different parts. I usually play Dean's part.

Lyrics
======================================================
(verse 1)
Complicate this world you wrapped for me
Im acquainted with your suffering
(chorus)
And all your weight, it falls on me
It brings me down
And all your weight, it falls on me
It falls on me
Hold me up to those whom you decieved
Promises you break, you still believe
(chorus) x3
And all your weight, it falls on me
It brings me down
And all your weight, it falls on me
It falls on me
