lyrics

Keep me safe and secure
The rest is up to me
I’ve got my share of bumps and bruises
But the scars are all you’ll see

I’m the only one, who can save myself
and I’m helpless cause I’m scared of what’s become of me

I’ve got my share of bumps and bruises, but the scars are all you’ll see

And everything you gave to me is everything I never wanted.
After everything you said, I would’ve been better off dead.

It makes me sick, to know you’re content with yourself.
Life on standby and living in hell.
Are you desperate to know?
Paint me out of the picture and watch me go.

And everything you gave to me is everything I never wanted.
After everything you said, I would’ve been better off dead.

Shake off the dust my bones have collected, it turns me to rust so keep me protected
It seems I’ve lost my way again, and I can’t pretend.

The life I’ve loved, the love I’ve lost.
The shelter and comfort all comes with a cost.

Cause I feel alive, when I’m all alone.
It’s so cold and dark in this hell I call home.
So show me the way.

So this is what
What we create
When we’re content

Sick of it all, lost and alone, sick and content

Fear is what controls us all, from these heights whose shots do we call?

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
