What's Killing You
Burden Of The Sky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a brand new agony in the same old way
Can I change this up, can I restart the cycle
I don't got much left but
I'm all for the fight
It's the friction the feeling
The damage, the shame
The panic, the pain the ailing, the empty
The hollow, that's mine
The exit's, the lonely the sorry, the fight
This isn't no where you're just a ghost
Stuck in the places I've hatеd the most
Reboot my memory, rеstart my heart
Seal up all of my wounds take
Me back to the start
It's the same old trip
Just a different phase
It's the same old lock on the same old cage
It's the same old conflict, I see no life
I don't got much left but
I'm all for the fight
It's the friction the feeling
The damage, the shame
The weakness, the failing
The panic, the pain the ailing, the empty
The hollow, that's mine
The exit's, the lonely the sorry, the fight
This isn't no where you're just a ghost
Stuck in the places I've hated the most
Reboot my memory, restart my heart
Seal up all of my wounds take
Me back to the start
This isn't nothing but I can't let this go
I'm stuck in nowhere with nothing to show
Rip me to pieces and replace what you can
Bury the rest and build a new me to plan
This isn't nothing but I can't let this go
I'm stuck in nowhere with nothing to show
Rip me to pieces and replace what you can
Bury the rest and build a new me to plan
This isn't no where you're just a ghost
Stuck in the places I've hated the most
Reboot my memory, restart my heart
Seal up all of my wounds take
Me back to the start
This isn't no where you're just a ghost
Stuck in the places I've hated the most
Reboot my memory, restart my heart
Seal up all of my wounds take
Me back to the start
