Fleesh is a Brazilian rock project formed in 2014 by Gabby Vessoni and Celo Oliveira.
It all started in 2014 when Celo and Gabby decided to record some songs, making their first record "My Real Life", released in 2015 independently. After this album release, they started to record some tribute versions on their YouTube Channel, reaching an large number of people all over the world.
Versions like Renaissance, Steve Hackett, Rush and Marillion were really embraced by the audience, influencing the duo to record their next album called "What I Found" (2017), with more progressive rock influences!
After this, also in 2017, a Rush tribute album called "The Next Hemisphere" was released with 14 songs trying to cover the band's career. They did a successful crowdfunding campaign to release both albums as physical copies as well.
In 2018, the project decided to record a new tribute album and, this time, a double album. "Script for a New Season" is Fleesh's tribute to Marillion, a band they admire a lot and is a huge influence to them.
At the end of 2018 they started to record their 3rd original album. This time, a concept album called "Across the Sea", trying to show all the stages of depression on the lyrics and on the instrumental parts as well.
In 2019 the project finally hits the stage as a duo, doing their very first live concert in the USA on April and, on October, they hit the Brazilian stages with a full band (Rodrigo Zacconi on bass and Leo Peccatu on drums) to perform songs from their latest record "Across the Sea". Releasing a live DVD from their very first concert as well.
In 2020 the duo releases a Renaissance and a Genesis tribute double albums and gets ready for their 4th original album!

Weight of the World
Fleesh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like the drops in the ocean
Sinking
Like an anchor in the water
Spiraling down
Like the leaves hit the ground
Oh, damn, gravity
Down on a free fall
Feels like the weight of the world is on my shoulders
Down on a free fall
Feel like the weight of the world
Waiting
Until this night is over
Time goes by
Wonder when the sun will rise
Carrying around
All that's bringing me down
I'm wondering
Will you catch me if I fall?
Feels like the weight of the world
Lies here on my shoulders
I am the weight of the world
Don't look at me
I'm over
I've nothing left inside
Don't look at me
'Cuz I'm colder
Just go and shut the door
Tell me the truth
how much more you think I can go through for you?
I feel like the weight of the world for you
Drifting like the drops in the ocean
The song "Weight of the World" by Fleesh seems to reflect the feeling of overwhelm and burden that a person may feel when dealing with difficult circumstances. The opening lines describe the feeling of losing control and sinking, like an anchor in the water. The use of water and the ocean in the opening lines can be understood as a metaphor for the uncontrollable and unpredictable nature of life's challenges. The lyrics describe the sensation of spiraling down and the force of gravity always bringing the persona down; they feel like they are on a free fall.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the feeling of being weighed down and overwhelmed by the problems of the world. The persona wonders when the night will be over and the sun will rise. They are carrying around all the problems that are weighing them down and they wonder if someone will be there to catch them if they fall. The persona is feeling the weight of the world on their shoulders.
The closing lines of the song carry a sense of hopelessness and give the impression that the persona is giving up. They feel like they have nothing left inside and are asking to be left alone. The final line of the song suggests that the persona is enduring their struggles for someone else, as if they are carrying the weight of the world for another person.
Line by Line Meaning
Drifting
Feeling aimless and lost
Like the drops in the ocean
Like a small, insignificant part of something much larger
Sinking
Feeling overwhelmed and helpless
Like an anchor in the water
Unable to move or make progress
Spiraling down
Descending into a negative cycle
Like the leaves hit the ground
Falling helplessly and without control
Oh, damn, gravity
The force of life's challenges constantly bringing one down
Always bringing me down
Life's challenges and struggles are constant and difficult to escape
Down on a free fall
In a state of free fall with no control or direction
Feels like the weight of the world is on my shoulders
Overwhelmed with the burden of life's challenges
Waiting
Enduring a difficult situation with patience
Until this night is over
Until this difficult situation comes to an end
Time goes by
Enduring through a difficult situation can feel like an eternity
Wonder when the sun will rise
Wondering when things will get better and the situation will improve
Carrying around
Holding on to the weight of past struggles
All that's bringing me down
Past struggles continue to impact current feelings and emotions
I'm wondering
Contemplating possible outcomes and seeking reassurance
Will you catch me if I fall?
In need of support and reassurance
Feels like the weight of the world
Overwhelming feeling of responsibility and hardship
Lies here on my shoulders
The burden of life's struggles rests on one's individual responsibility
I am the weight of the world
Overcoming life's struggles and finding strength within oneself
Don't look at me
Avoiding attention or scrutiny
I'm over
Feeling exhausted and spent
I've nothing left inside
Feeling emotionally and mentally depleted
Cuz I'm colder
Distance or detachment from others due to past hurt
Just go and shut the door
Pushing others away to protect oneself
Tell me the truth
Seeking honesty and clarity
How much more you think I can go through for you?
Feeling overwhelmed and questioning the purpose of enduring struggles for the benefit of others
I feel like the weight of the world for you
Sacrificing one's own well-being for the sake of others

J'ai plus de 50 ans,et lorsque j'ai découvert fleesh par hasard ,j'ai été très surpris .
Notamment par les reprises de RUSH puis ensuite MARILLION (mon groupe préféré).
Toutes les reprises que vous interprétait ,son des groupes que j’écoute depuis + de 40 ans et encore aujourd'hui.
Je me répète ,mais la voix de fleesh est exceptionnelle et ses interprétations a coupe le souffle.
Les musiciens sont eux aussi parfait .Le duo dans I WILL REMENBER de TOTO hallucinant.
Je ne parle pas du solo de guitare dans SUGAR MICE ,on dirait STEVE ROTHERY.
Je n'ai qu'un mot ,vous êtes des très bons.
Comment achetez vos albums pour mieux vous connaitre ? de quel nationalité etes vous?
Vous faites partis maintenant des morceaux que j’écoute en boucle.
Très très heureux de vous avoir découvert sur internet
