The Burden Lyrics

Is it necessary to try to carry this burden alone
If it were any other day I would stay to satisfy
the urge for hope
But instead I'm running away.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
But I don't think you're ready,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
I don't think you're ready to go,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

Is it necessary to leave us all behind
Here in this smoke filled room my eyes feel dry with the world on my shoulders.
Praying for light to show a path cause I can't do this by myself
do this by myself.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
But I don't think you're ready,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
I don't think you're ready to go,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
But I don't think you're ready,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
I don't think you're ready to go,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
But I don't think you're ready,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.

It's so real, he said to the man with time on his hands.
I don't think you're ready to go,
and I don't think I'm ready to know.
