"Burden" lyrics
"Burden"
I, once upon a time
Carried a burden inside
I sung a last goodbye
A broken rhyme I had underlined
There's an ocean of sorrow in you
A sorrow in me
I saw a movement in their eyes
They said I no longer knew the way
I had given up the ghost
A passive mind submit to fear
And the wait for redemption at hand
Waiting to fail
Failing again
If death should take me now
Count my mistakes and let me through
Whisper in my ear
You've taken more than we've received
And the ocean of sorrow is you
Thanks to Ryan for correcting these lyrics.

It lived through the night, then whispered goodbye

Swallow The Sun - "Falling World" Hold me, this world is falling down on me
Feel it, is it the dead or death
That walks among us?
Close your eyes but stay awake
They are trying to crawl inside your head
