"Weight" (previously called Whitewashed Walls) is an original song by Hawthorne. It's the third track on the upcoming debut album Hawthorne.

lyrics

The clock on my wall is ticking slow
It's hard to tell if it's moving at all
It may have broke or time just may be quitting

My whitewashed walls are turning grey
It's not from smoke, not from decay
The room just wants to feel a little darker

So won't you please, please let me out
It hurts my cause to scream and shout
And I'm pretty sure this door's unlocked and open

I need a place to be, to sleep these thoughts away
I need some space to breathe, to alleviate the weight

So cast me a line or cast me out
Twiddling thumbs ain't what I'm about
I think I'd take a nice long walk if I had a jacket

The coffee in my cup is two weeks old
I'm getting vitamins from all the mold
I'd make a new pot if I had the motivation

I need a place to be, to sleep these thoughts away
I need some space to breathe, to alleviate the weight
