This Burden I See

[Verse 1]
I wasn't trying to take away your dignity
Sometimes, my words just get in the way
You stand strong and tall, you stood and took it all
You don't deserve it, God knows why you stay

[Pre-Chorus]
And it all seems so easy
What you want from me, afraid it will never be
Answers don't come easily
We make lots of mistakes before we get what we need

[Chorus]
Take it from me, this burden I see
Lord, won't you take it from me?
Take it from me, this burden I see
Lord, won't you take it from me?

[Verse 2]
The water seeps through and pours
My thoughts now drenched and my words filled with fear
It takes a lot to quiet this storm
A strong back and a mind that is clеar

[Pre-Chorus]
And it all seems so easy
What you want from me, afraid it will nevеr be
Answers don't come easily
We make lots of mistakes before we get what we need

[Chorus]
Take it from me, this burden I see
Lord, won't you take it from me?
Take it from me, this burden I see
Lord, won't you take it from me?

[Bridge]
Oh, how is it supposed to be?
The things that are good
They don't seem to be understood

[Chorus]
Take it from me, this burden I see
Lord, won't you take it from me?
Take it from me, this burden I see
Lord, won't you take it from me?

[Outro]
I wasn't trying to take away your dignity
Sometimes, my words just get in the way
