Starting Over
Burden Of The Sky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of a broken bond that we left un-mended
It's getting easier to take that step
In the right direction without pretending
To you, I'm just fine
But for me it's time to start again
Today I feel alive
Today, I know where I'm going
I know what I want
And I know that today is my day
I thought I knew you
But I guess you're the same
Because to me this is life
But to you it's a game
I told you once, I hope you feel the pressure
I hope you feel the guilt
I hope you feel the pain
To you, I'm just fine
But for me it's time to start again
Today, I'm starting over today
Today I feel alive
Today, I know where I'm going
I know what I want
And I know that today is my day
It's over and done with Ive
Brought all my guns with
You're not going to stop this
I'm starting over like this
Today, I'm starting over today
Today I feel alive
Today, I know where I'm going
I know what I want
And I know that today is my day

I'm taking over to protect what's left
I am assuming control to safeguard what remains
Of a broken bond that we left un-mended
From a shattered connection that we neglected to repair
It's getting easier to take that step
I am finding it less difficult to embark on this journey
In the right direction without pretending
Towards the correct path, with sincerity and without pretense
To you, I'm just fine
In your eyes, I may appear well
But for me it's time to start again
Yet for me, it is the moment to begin anew
Today, I'm starting over today
In this very day, I am commencing afresh
Today I feel alive
Today, I am filled with vitality
Today, I know where I'm going
Today, I am aware of my destination
I know what I want
I am clear on my desires
And I know that today is my day
Furthermore, today belongs to me
I thought I knew you
I believed I understood who you were
But I guess you're the same
Yet I suppose you remain unchanged
Because to me this is life
Because to me, this is my existence
But to you it's a game
However, to you, it is merely a game
I told you once, I hope you feel the pressure
I advised you before, I desire for you to experience the weight
I hope you feel the guilt
I wish for you to feel remorse
I hope you feel the pain
I hope you endure the suffering
It's over and done with Ive
It is finished and resolved now
Brought all my guns with
I have brought all my resources and determination
You're not going to stop this
You cannot impede this progress
I'm starting over like this
I am initiating a fresh beginning in this manner
