You Carry a Heavy Burden
I hold my life in my hands
But cling to branches that break under the weight of mistakes
I tried to hide behind pain
Scabs felt like badges but scars bring me nothing but shame
Use me up, throw me away
I was still back the next day
I needed an escape
I finally made a change
Now language hides the perfect crime
But complications still arise
She cries as worlds collide
I think my world has died and
The bright side is still where the shade resides and
That shade has all been internalized and
My fear of consuming has become an all-consuming fear
Just when it starts to go away, I do my best to keep it here
And I'm still asleep at the wheel tonight
And everybody has passed me by
But if I'm sleeping through the sunrise
At least I'm sleeping through the sunset too
But cling to branches that break under the weight of mistakes
I tried to hide behind pain
Scabs felt like badges but scars bring me nothing but shame
Use me up, throw me away
I was still back the next day
I needed an escape
I finally made a change
Now language hides the perfect crime
But complications still arise
She cries as worlds collide
I think my world has died and
The bright side is still where the shade resides and
That shade has all been internalized and
My fear of consuming has become an all-consuming fear
Just when it starts to go away, I do my best to keep it here
And I'm still asleep at the wheel tonight
And everybody has passed me by
But if I'm sleeping through the sunrise
At least I'm sleeping through the sunset too
