Biography:
The Amity Affliction is a alternative metal/melodic metalcore band originally from Gympie, Queensland. They have become one of the most well known hardcore bands in Australia through a strong touring ethic, a stunningly original sound and a commitment to creating a fun and exciting atmosphere within the scene.
It seemingly took The Amity Affliction years to get their music together, releasing a demo in 2003 and a self-titled EP in 2004, but from the moment they released their High Hopes EP in 2007, the touring rampage began.

Bm Bm2
I've lived behind a mask
Bm Bm2
So long so few know who I am
G
They know other sides of me
A
That hide behind a haunted man
Bm Bm2
Though my hands are made of stone
Bm Bm2
And I brake everything I see
G
They've saved me from myself
A
And they stand by me
Bm
Weighed down on the way down
G
I need someone to take my hand
A
It feels like I can't breathe
Bm
And I might drown on the way down
G
I'm sick of all the come downs
A
Don't tell me that there's nothing wrong
I'm weighed down, way down
Bm Bm2 Bm Bm2 Bm Bm2 G A
Bm Bm2
I'll fight fatigue, I'll fight for you
Bm Bm2
For everything that we've been through

I'll take your hand, I'll carry on
I've been weighed down for far too long

There's too much resting on this

Never be weighed down

I'll f****** stand and resist
Bm
Weighed down on the way down
G
I need someone to take my hand
A
It feels like I can't breathe
Bm
And I might drown on the way down
G
I'm sick of all the come downs
