| Release this burden |
| Burden |
| I'm far from perfect |
| But what I gave you was a gift |
| Expecting so little |
| I never cared if you came or left |
| Moving on |
| No one will ever live in our shoes and |
| No one will ever know the full truth so |
| I choose to let the music itself |
| Speak volumes about you |
| Nothing but deadweight |
| Seeing the world all expenses paid |
|
| And now I've carried the weight |
| I've carried the weight |
| Of your burden long enough |
| And I listened as you fabricate |
| Till the truth just fades away |
| But it's you that starts to fade |
|
| So caught in the past |
| A legacy you hardly built |
| While here in reality |
| I sadly witnessed your intellect wilt |
| You hardly wrote a note |
| Like a well dressed ghost |
| That learned to feed off us |
| As a virus to a host |
|
| And now I've carried the weight |
| Of your burden long enough |
| And I listened as you fabricate |
| Till the truth just fades away |
| But it's you that starts to fade |
|
| Fade away |
| Fade away |
| I've had this millstone around my neck |
| Long enough |
| Burden, deadweight, burden |
| It's become clear that you are just deadweight |
| That's been released to sink |
| Release |
|
| And now I've carried the weight |
| I've carried the weight |
| Of your burden long enough |
| And I listened as you fabricate |
| Till the truth just fades away |
| But it's you that starts to fade |
|
| It's become clear that you are just deadweight |
| That's been released to sink |
| Release |
| Burden, deadweight, burden |
|
