Burden to Bear

There’s a reason to be happy, baby
There’s a reason to be sad
Oh there’s a reason to throw it away
I find it so hard to relate these days
To anything or anyone at all
Everything that matters
Everything that ever will
On a distant shoreline way across the western hills
I can’t seem to get there, you know it seems my life’s been put on hold
The time keeps slipping away
They say you can fool yourself but not very long
I think I’ve been fooling myself my whole life long
Taken everything that mattered
I watched it leave without a care
Don’t you know, don’t you know that’s the hardest burden to bear
Look in the mirror I see the lines on my face
Look in my eyes I can feel all the pain
Of everything I’ve been ashamed of in the past
There’s enough regret there to last
And I can’t deny what I understand
If you live your life like a one night stand
You wind up alone and lost and afraid with nothing to say
I guess it doesn’t matter anyway
They say you can fool yourself but not very long
I think I’ve been fooling myself my whole life long
Taken everything that mattered
I watched it leave without a care
Don’t you know, don’t you know, that’s the hardest burden to bear
The hardest burden to bear
The hardest burden to bear
