Famous Last Words
Bury My Burdens
[Verse 1]
I pray on my knees, what are you trying to show me?
God tell, me please, because it's driving me crazy
Am I sick, fanatic, or possessed by a demon inside me
That is poisoning my soul deep from within?
The fear, the fear, that's imprisoned me here
Caused by these blackouts and nightmares
That seem to have come from nowhere
I'm scared, am I ill and impaired?
Or am I bound by a curse from an evil?
So, I'll say a prayer:
[Pre-Chorus]
Please, God, please
Purge out this torment inside me
[Chorus]
The night caught fire, the dark sunk in
I felt the venom deep within myself, a toxic war
We've all got something to live for
I must contain my lunacy
Keep up the front that I'm okay
My burdens, I must ignore
We've all got something to live for
[Verse 2]
I don't know why I faint
But these blackouts create these visions in my head of hate
Am I sick, or is there more than it seems at first glance?
Is there a message hidden deep within these dreams?
[Pre-Chorus]
Please, God, please
Purge out this torment inside me
Set me free
Or have you forsaken me?
[Chorus]
The night caught fire, the dark sunk in
I felt the venom deep within myself, a toxic war
We've all got something to live for
I must contain my lunacy
Keep up the front that I'm okay
My burdens, I must ignore
We've all got something to live for
[Bridge]
Locked away, I'll hide out
Feels like I've come undone
Or, I can leave now
But where can I go?
Where can I run?
We've all got something to live for
Gotta open my eyes to see through the storm
And I try to maintain
The illusion of glee
That makes me seem okay, day by day
But it's starting to destroy me
I'll live a lie, keep it inside
I'll live a lie, I'll live a lie
[Chorus]
The night caught fire, the dark sunk in
I felt the venom deep within myself, a toxic war
We've all got something to live for
I must contain my lunacy
Keep up the front that I'm okay
My burdens, I must ignore
We've all got something to live for
[Outro]
I'll live a lie
