I thought you left me to die These wounds are getting deeper I've been betrayed and left behind Poison filling my mind Are you even listening? This world has taken me down Things aren't what I had imagined them to be There's no easy way out I need your guidance We see the cracks begin to fade Fade away, into the safest place Where I let these demons remain Nobody said these bones wouldn't break Along the way, along the way To walk this path alone It means death for us all This road we've created in our minds Leads to nothing but pain We are our burden (I will not play the victim) In the primes of our lives we turn a blind eye To the burdens that we bring on ourselves Mistaking fortune for warnings I brought this on myself Remove yourself Release yourself from the things that Hold these chains in place Remove yourself Release yourself and break away, break away Remove these chains from me And you'll see them all fade away, fade away Fade away into the safest place Where I let these demons remain Nobody said these bones wouldn't break Along the way, along the way We are the burden We are the burden
