Lyrics
Heavy On My Mind

By Peter Kern


Often times I dream about my brother
Vividly in color it's like he never died
In every dream I hug and I kiss him
I tell him that I miss him, but he says he's doing fine
To lose his loving heart, which beat just like mine
It weighs heavy on my mind
Heavy on my mind

GODS "wrecking ball of LOVE" was not yet done swinging
His final act of  20 - 0 - 5 
A hip demolition as her telephone was ringing
My mother's days were numbered
Not exactly a surprise.
Tender sadness in her eyes
It weighed so heavy on my mind
Heavy on my mind


Private thoughts like this are better left as thoughts
I'm exposing way too much of me
It sounds like I'm wallowing in self-pity
But it's honesty...pouring out of me
I've got to dump this load
This burden filled with grief
I'll explode, unless there is relief
Because it's weighing heavy on my mind


You might have heard that times flies when you're having fun 
Well it goes quick when times are tough too
Entire years have come and gone
Still so much emptiness; managing the pain
Loss is hard...just can't deal with that again
The day to day is going okay
But those thoughts, those memories
Will always weigh
Heavy on my mind
