Lyrics

It's all too much to bear

Feeling overwhelmed by the weight of burdens.

So I'll accept my fate

Resignation to the circumstances.

When I'm bearing my own burden

Struggling with personal hardships.

I crumble beneath the weight

Collapsing under the pressure of those burdens.

Hidden below the surface

Experiencing internal pain not visibly evident.

A pain that can't be seen

A deeper emotional suffering.

If I revealed this to anyone

Fear of judgment if sharing personal struggles.

What would they think of me

Concern about how others would perceive vulnerabilities.

What would they think of me

Reiteration of fear regarding judgment.

Real men don't share their feelings

Pressures of societal expectations about expressing emotions.

So I keep this locked inside

Internalizing emotions due to societal norms.

If I had to go another day

Preferential thoughts about ending the suffering.

I think I would rather die

Strong preference for relief from the struggle.

I would rather die

Reinforcement of the desire to escape the burden.

This is too much to bear

Reiteration of being overwhelmed.

So I'll accept my fate

Acceptance of fate despite the difficulty.

When I'm bearing my own burden

Struggling with personal hardships (repeated).

I crumble beneath the weight

Repetition of collapsing under burdens.

This isn't a lack of faith

Clarification that the struggle isn't due to lack of faith.

Or something to be prayed away

Recognition that the issue cannot be solved through prayer alone.

Before you do damage with your words

Cautioning about the impact of words on someone's mental state.

Consider what you're going to say

Encouragement for thoughtfulness in speech.

Full of anxiety and dread

Constantly feeling anxious and unsafe.

There's no place I feel safe

Lack of feeling secure anywhere.

Finding solace in thoughts of death

Seeking comfort in thoughts of death due to distress.

I realize it's time for a change

Realization of the need for change in the current situation.

There's no one else who can stop this

Recognizing personal responsibility in addressing the issues.

I have to take these steps myself

Understanding the necessity of self-initiated actions.

God, please save me from this darkness

Pleading for divine intervention in the struggle.

Lift me up from this living hell

Desperation for relief from intense suffering.

I need help

Repetition emphasizes the urgent need for assistance.

Confession is the first step to healing

Acknowledging that confession is the first step towards healing.

Now I am on the track to becoming well

Realization of being on the path to recovery.

Surrounded by family in Christ

Surrounded by supportive family in a religious context.

I first had to admit I needed help

Recognition of needing help as a crucial step.

There is no shame in being honest

Asserting that honesty about struggles isn't shameful.

It can start conversation and open eyes

Highlighting the potential positive impact of honesty.

You could make a difference out there

Encouraging the possibility of making a difference.

You may even save a life

Implying the power of openness in saving lives.

I need help

Reiteration of the urgent plea for help.

I need help
