lyrics

Eventually my lungs will breathe some life into this mess i’ve made
So sell my doubt
Then pull me out
And I’ll settle for the days
Where these things seemed so irrelevant

Face it
I’ve got this nothing inside but I swear I’m alive
They said
Well I’ve been waiting for days where I don’t feel contrived

Don’t say you’ll settle for less because you’ve got nothing left

I still fail to see the sun
And I’m at my worst like it’s well rehearsed
I still fail to see the sun
And I know

I’ll put your memories in a coffin
I swear I'll dig them up one day
You said that this could be easy
But I've found no other way
And I get so caught up in the things I can’t change

I still fail to see the sun
And I’m at my worst like it’s well rehearsed
I still fail to see the sun
And I know

I thought I said it all, so just believe in me and I’ll never leave

And I’m hollow again
How do I always end up like this?
Always starved in the end but I never
And I’m hollow again, how do I always end up like this?
Always starved in the end. Always starved in the end

I still fail to see the sun
And I’m at my worst like it’s well rehearsed
I still fail to see the sun
And I know
And I'm hollow again

The Burden Prince George, British Columbia

The Burden is as much a band as they are a journey into the shadows of the heart. Drawing on elements of the glory days of post-hardcore and weaving them with intricate and honest reflections of love and loss, the band’s continual rise is only amplified by their unapologetic approach to raw lyricism and therapeutic song writing. ... more
