Burden Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This is enough now,
Says the shape of your brow
The salt on your cheeks
And the way that you're looking down
I know that you know
Why you were not the first
From the depths of my heart
I really hope that you're the last
(you're the last)
[Pre-Chorus]
I know this means more than the truth would have had I not held onto the tricks for so long.
What should have been a simple yes or no for you has become something that you can't stop
[Chorus]
Now you're carrying the weight of
Mistakes and notions that were not thought through
And I'm sorry for the burden
Of lessons I would not have without you
[Verse 2]
I saw this picture
Long before it was drawn
Does that mean I should
Have never walked through your bedroom door?
This potion past not
Long after it was born
Does that mean you could
Live on without the cure?
[Pre-Chorus]
I know this means more than the truth would have had I not held onto the tricks for so long
What should have been a simple yes or no for you has become something that you can't stop
[Chorus]
Now you're carrying the weight of
Mistakes and notions that were not thought through
And I'm sorry for the burden
Of lessons I would not have without you
