Burden

I wish that I could replace
The look I saw on your face
I don’t want to believe I can lose you
Are you even aware
That it just isn’t fair
What more do you need me to do?
Try
I can try
But you hide the things that I need to convince you
What if I should do
The thing you want me to?
What will be left of this for you to bury?
Why can’t you believe
That I will never leave?
That’s a burden you don’t have to carry
I don’t need to compare
With things that just aren’t there
Will you ever believe I won’t hurt you
I wish that you would let go
of what you cannot control
How many ways must I tell you?
Try
I can try
But you hide everything so deep inside you
So what if I should do
The thing you want me to?
What will be left of this for you to bury?
I know you can’t believe
That I will never leave
that’s a burden you will always carry
There’s something you should know
just before you leave
that’s a burden you will always carry
