As I Lay Dying

Our secrets are what make us lonely When no one else knows the weight we carry All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is Paralyzing fear prevents Into the unknown we must step The cave seems more like an abyss But inside is everything we've missed All our blindspots brought to light And every demon we've tried to fight What becomes of the pain That dwells so deep it can't be seen Who can show the path from shame To make you believe Believe you're not to blame So once again we want to run away Far from everything that we love Safe from facing all we're carrying The cave we fear to enter All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is Going further into the abyss We uncover life's fullness Recovering what dwells in the deep The darkest corners no longer mystery Uncharted, unexplored Undiscovered, stranded in the void What becomes of the pain That dwells so deep it can't be seen Who can show the path from shame To make you believe Believe you're not to blame So once again we want to run away Far from everything that we love Safe from facing all we're carrying The cave we fear to enter Lay to rest the memories (memories) That hold you down Paralyzing fear prevents Into the unknown we must step The cave we fear to enter No one else knows Hidden like a ghost Our past torments (our past torments) Will bury us (will bury us) So once again we want to run away Far from everything that we love Safe from facing all we're carrying The cave we fear to enter Lay to rest the memories (memories) That hold you down Lay to rest the memories In the cave we fear to enter All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is All I see and all I know is pain All I see and all I know is

Release this burden Burden I'm far from perfect But what I gave you was a gift Expecting so little I never cared if you came or left Moving on No one will ever live in our shoes and No one will ever know the full truth so I choose to let the music itself Speak volumes about you Nothing but deadweight Seeing the world all expenses paid And now I've carried the weight I've carried the weight Of your burden long enough And I listened as you fabricate Till the truth just fades away But it's you that starts to fade So caught in the past A legacy you hardly built While here in reality I sadly witnessed your intellect wilt You hardly wrote a note Like a well dressed ghost That learned to feed off us As a virus to a host And now I've carried the weight Of your burden long enough And I listened as you fabricate Till the truth just fades away But it's you that starts to fade Fade away Fade away I've had this millstone around my neck Long enough Burden, deadweight, burden It's become clear that you are just deadweight That's been released to sink Release And now I've carried the weight I've carried the weight Of your burden long enough And I listened as you fabricate Till the truth just fades away But it's you that starts to fade It's become clear that you are just deadweight That's been released to sink Release Burden, deadweight, burden
