Lyrics
Burden
Sometimes I feel like it's weighing me down
So Hard to live with and so hard to be around
Suddenly it all appears to me
flaming light in the darkness hanging over me
Ah hah wanna lay this burden down
Ah hah think i'm finally coming round
Ah hah hah finding out the common ground
Ah hah hah think i'm finally coming round
Shedding off the burden now my journey just begun
living for tomorrow Each day as it comes
Said you didn't know me well I'm holding out for more
I hope you're getting to know me never known a love like this before
Ah hah wanna lay this burden down
Ah hah think i'm finally coming round
Ah hah hah finding out the common ground
Ah hah hah think i'm finally coming round
ah hah
outro
