Burdens

I know, we have our burdens

But I feel that we could be

So much more than we are

Is this why we leave?

I know that we're fallen

But I can never let it go

In a heartbeat we could

Turn away from all we have

Our days of old, be passed away

Like the sands through the hourglass

I would hate to see us here

Falling for another lie

If we could mend our mistakes

Maybe it would take forever, for us

If I confide in you

Would I be redeemed like you?

I can't keep the dark out

It always seems to seep right through

I just cannot fathom

The wisdom you're suppose to carry

If I would dare to meet you

Turn away from all I have

Could it wash my sins away?

Would it take us through forever?

If I confide in you

Would I be redeemed like you?

I know, we have our burdens

But I feel that we could be

So much more than we are

Is this why we leave?

I know that we're fallen

But I can never let it go!

If I confide in you

Would I be redeemed like you?

If I confide in you

Would I be redeemed like you?

oh, yeah, oh
