[Intro]

I won’t let this burden bring me down


[Verse 1]

So, here we are again

Starin’ at the end of what we made and who we are

Never knowin' when

One of us will break apart and walk the other

Way, love, I don’t know what to

Say, love, I don’t know how to stay when you won’t

Let me be the person that I am


[Chorus]

The writing's on the wall

There’s nothin' to say anymore

So I'll leave before I fall apart

Right back into your arms

The writing's on the wall

You gave nothin' and I gave it all

But I want something better

I won’t let this burden bring me down


[Verse 2]

What are we to do?

What are we to say to one another now we're through?

Thanks for bein' you

Thanks for bein’ all the things I had to say

Goodbye to, I'm over bein'

Lied to, I'm over bein’

Pushed Into the person that you want me to become


[Chorus]

The writing's on the wall

There’s nothin' to say anymore

So I'll leave before I fall apart

Right back into your arms

The writing's on the wall

You gave nothin' and I gave it all

But I want something better

I won’t let this burden bring me down


[Bridge]

Oh where did it go wrong?

(Oh) We had it for so long

(Oh) But now there’s no point in turning back

Let’s face the facts

(The writing's on the wall)


[Chorus]

There’s nothin' to say anymore

So I'll leave before I fall apart

Right back into your arms

The writing's on the wall

You gave nothin' and I gave it all

But I want something better

And I won’t let this burden bring me

I won’t let this burden bring me

I won’t let this burden bring me down
