I need to rid myself of this burden
That holds itself inside my heart
With unknown intent
And with no real reason for getting there
It needs to be gone.
I need to find my way to rid of it
With this burden I look just like everybody else
I am happy and chipper on the outside
But in my heart
I am falling into this endless abyssal hole
That sucks more and more out of my life
It feeds on my happiness and takes it away from me
With this burden I need somebody to help me
You may not know why I am doing this
But I just need your help to save me from this endless abyss
Save me from living a lie
Help me to be happy
Help me to rid of these abyssal depths
That claims to help me
Help me to rid of this burden.

The weeping willows

I need to rid myself of this burden
That holds itself inside my heart
With unknown intent
And with no real reason for getting
