lyrics

I set the letter down
The words too much to hold
My hands, they shake from fear I've never known

Too paralyzed to hide it
My friend, he says it's fine
But he doesn't look me in the eye

Something I've done
Has taken hold
It's in my bones

For a moment I unravel
And I'm afraid to ask
To share the weight that's weighing down my back

And I don't like what I'm told
So I don't do what I'm told
And I don't share my burdens anymore

Something I've done
Has taken hold
It's in my bones

I don't like what I'm told
I've got to let it go
But I'm always letting go...
I'm always moving on...
