Bearing My Own Burden
Lyrics
It's all too much to bear
So I'll accept my fate
When I'm bearing my own burden
I crumble beneath the weight
Hidden below the surface
A pain that can't be seen
If I revealed this to anyone
What would they think of me
What would they think of me
Real men don't share their feelings
So I keep this locked inside
If I had to go another day
I think I would rather die
I would rather die
This is too much to bear
So I'll accept my fate
When I'm bearing my own burden
I crumble beneath the weight
This isn't a lack of faith
Or something to be prayed away
Before you do damage with your words
Consider what you're going to say
Full of anxiety and dread
There's no place I feel safe
Finding solace in thoughts of death
I realize it's time for a change
There's no one else who can stop this
I have to take these steps myself
God, please save me from this darkness
Lift me up from this living hell
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
Confession is the first step to healing
Now I am on the track to becoming well
Surrounded by family in Christ
I first had to admit I needed help
There is no shame in being honest
It can start conversation and open eyes
You could make a difference out there
You may even save a life
I need help
I need help
It's all too much to bear
So I'll accept my fate
When I'm bearing my own burden
I crumble beneath the weight
Hidden below the surface
A pain that can't be seen
If I revealed this to anyone
What would they think of me
What would they think of me
Real men don't share their feelings
So I keep this locked inside
If I had to go another day
I think I would rather die
I would rather die
This is too much to bear
So I'll accept my fate
When I'm bearing my own burden
I crumble beneath the weight
This isn't a lack of faith
Or something to be prayed away
Before you do damage with your words
Consider what you're going to say
Full of anxiety and dread
There's no place I feel safe
Finding solace in thoughts of death
I realize it's time for a change
There's no one else who can stop this
I have to take these steps myself
God, please save me from this darkness
Lift me up from this living hell
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
I need help
Confession is the first step to healing
Now I am on the track to becoming well
Surrounded by family in Christ
I first had to admit I needed help
There is no shame in being honest
It can start conversation and open eyes
You could make a difference out there
You may even save a life
I need help
I need help
