Burden


Where’s your faith?
Where’s your glory?
Where’s your friend when you’re needy?
Where’s the moral to your story?

How’s the world supposed to know
the truth of your Burden such a heavy load
for a bird in flight…?
Alarming noise for a soundless night

Where’s your lust,
Where’s your hunger
Where’s your passion when you want love
Beneath the(your) foot it’s trampled under

How’s the world supposed to know?
The truth of your Burden, such a heavy load
When arrows barbed with fire
Aim to pluck your eyes and close your hour…

Where’s your faith, where’s your love and your hunger and lust…
For your glory, desire and a friend you can trust
When we’re all at the gate and the pistol is fired
It’s never forethought to tire…
