The Burden Of Truth
 (c) 2006 feixu.org Author: The Ruins

You’ve grown up no faith.
Now you are questioning the science.
You say your grandpa is no monkey,
And you don’t know much about Jesus.
Oh, baby, don’t you feel like the only one,
Carry the burden of truth.
 
You’ve been hurt by hatred,
Love breaks you heart to thousand pieces.
You say nobody sees what you see,
When you cry nobody hears.
Oh, baby, don’t you feel like the only one,
Carry the burden of truth.

Your mama didn’t teach you how to wed.
Nobody tells you how to bury your dead.
You went to college to make some sense.
You got pointless knowledge of no worth.
Oh, baby, don’t you feel like the only one,
Carry the burden of truth.

The machine guns put fear in your heart.
Your best friend married your only love.
Your hero she wants you be her martyr.
You want to respect but no one deserves.
Oh, baby, don’t you feel like the only one,
Carry the burden of truth.
 
You fought so hard to defy gravity.
Now you are floating up in the air.
You start wars to destroy all your past,
Now you are at a loss where your future lies.
Oh, baby, don’t you feel like the only one,
Carry the burden of truth.
 
You say you don’t belong to he or she or them,
You say, I just want to be who I am.
But isn’t that maddening,
Always find only yourself stand in the ruins.
Oh,   brother, don’t you feel like the only one,
Carry the burden of truth.
