Burden Lyrics

I feel like this song this song is trying to decide how we face struggles on an everyday basis, and how we try so hard to overcome them they still keep coming and we fall dominoes to them...which is true, to a certain extent. We keep trying to live for something else but these "struggles" keep following us. I really like the end where he lets us all know how the devil is not just a being that is around us, but that he is in us, as in he is our flesh, since our flesh is of the world. But we can control our flesh, leaving the devil to go somewhere else.

My Interpretation

The end of this song is amazing. I agree with you wholeheartedly about the devil being our flesh, and flesh is of the world. You summed it up great.
