Hysterical Strength

I'm not sure but it sounds like a story about a husband/father leaving and the aftermath of it.

"Hey it's your blood That makes my veins run It's true, so I tried to give it back to you"

Here she's pointing out that it's her father's blood that makes her veins run. family... blood relative, but she doesn't want to be related to him.

"Young one, look at me It's not your beast to leash Oh don't hold more than you can stand to carry"

This is either her talking to a younger sibling or her mom telling her that it's not her problem and she shouldn't worry about it. "it's not your beast to leash... don't hold more than you can stand to carry"...

"Must have been the case Hysterical strength To stand up while the room moved off its axis"

Here she's saying she didn't listen. It "must have been the case" that she held more than she could stand to carry, because it took a lot of strength to stand up with her world turned upside down (off it's axis).

"Old man look at me Through the teeth of your grief Oh don't grab more than you can stand to carry"

And here she talks to her father, and sarcastically tells him the same advice. "Please, don't go out of your way to take this burden on"

"'Cause you went off to see what no one else could see And left more than we could stand to bury"

And here she tells the old man why she hates him. He went off to live a life without them and left them with all these problems that they aren't able to rid them selves of.

I could be wrong... but that's what i hear.
