Lyrics
The Burden
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The centre of dreams
deprives me of things that should have been
As I wonder towards my final sin
there is no one to explain what I feel
Will you see to that I will arrive?
Feeling bitter and blue as I lay down my heart
and even though you know that it is me
you will continue to live out my sin
The fact however, I can not confirm
the secrets that once were lost with the burden
that was you
Dreams in a fantasy of reality
that is where you will find me
Now, you have noticed that I have arrived
so when will you depart from my heart?
You say that I have been carried away,
and I suddenly realise it is all here to stay.
