The burden of sin weighs on my heart Abandoned and scarred, it ripped you apart Your truth was left unknown I kneel before the altar And pray my soul to stay Besieged and buttressed by my Seething inside my body The tortured role it played Kept secrets of our father You carried this burden alone Your truth and pain, now my own Why? And when you shared with open arms Your pain inflicted youth I, by not knowing, by closing my eyes Bear the weight of the lie and it kills me inside I will carry your name
