Burdens
(You gotta take better care of yourself..) (Put yourself first, then others..) [Verse 1] I'm always available to help No time for myself- Wanting to lift burdens off others You can call it self impertinence But out of habit I forget- [Pre-chorus] You gotta start Taking care of yourself Leave your phone Nobody's home- [Chorus] In this head it's only me As I tread deep waters to see What it takes to leave my kindness At my own door- Simply wanting nothing more To sit in silence as my teardrops Hit the hardwood floor- [Verse 2] I'm sorry if my music's sad But sometime writing's all I have Supressing feelings, demons or self doubt A way for me to share my thoughts Call it a worldwide web shout- [Pre-chorus] You gotta start Taking care of yourself Leave your phone Nobody's home- [Chorus] In this head it's only me As I tread deep waters to see What it takes to leave my kindness At my own door- Simply wanting nothing more To sit in silence as my teardrops Hit the hardwood floor- [Calm bridge] What I'm writing here is all true I'd rather take your burdens Make things easier for you- Instead of seeing you With all this pain- I still have a lot of baggage A little more couldn't hurt to gain [Chorus] In this head it's only me As I tread deep waters to see What it takes to leave my kindness At my own door- Simply wanting nothing more To sit in silence as my teardrops Hit the hardwood floor-
