Identity

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
