Burden Songtext
von Across Oceans

Desolation
This gift I have to bear
Left in shadows
Alone but unaware

Desolation
This gift I have to bear
Left in shadows
Alone but unaware

If this is the wrath of man
Then why do you scream to God?
When the gun is in your mouth
Do you think he′ll save you now?

Seek out the new beatitudes
Ten reasons to lose your faith
If this is the wrath of God
Do you think he has made a mistake?

Save me from this burden
Show me what it is I've lost inside


If this is the wrath of man
Then why do you scream to God?
When the gun is in your mouth
Do you think he′ll save you now?

Spiraling through this night
Doubt festers on my mind
Oh, why can't you hear me?
I need a way to escape

Save me from this burden
Show me what it is I've lost inside

Follow the circle to the edge of all reason
Lend me your hand now as I fall out of season
Search for all this pain and all this beauty simultaneously
Be the one to seek to find, searching for what I′ve lost inside

(Search, search)
Search for what I′ve lost inside
Search for what I've lost inside
(Search for what I′ve lost inside)

Our leaders want to watch the world burn
Oh, how has this become?


Desolation
This gift I have to bear
Left in shadows
Alone but unaware
