Supreme Oppression
I am the tears on your cheek
Can you feel it?
I am the scream that wants out
Trapped inside
I am the weight on your shoulders
The Burden
I taste your sorrow and your pain
feel your heart cold as ice

This path has led you astray
fallen into the sea of pain
Splinters of a broken heart
Questions without an answer
You think you're in control
Then you become the things you hate
As you try to be everything
Without being your self
Just be your self

You're asking why this deep blue sky
Doesn't know when to sweep

All of your life you've looked for the one
To fill the void
I am this thing you have inside
I'm tearing you apart
Breaking down peace by peace
As I whisper your name

This path has led you astray
fallen into the sea of pain
Splinters of a broken heart
Questions without an answer
You think you're in control
Then you become the things you hate
As you try to be everything
Without being your self
Just be your self
