My Burden (1997)

My burden
My weight to carry alone
Inside me
Down through the very marrow of my bones

My sickness
You can catch it if you get too close
It'll tear you down
Cut off your fire and destroy us both

Unforgetting, unbelieving, impure
Unrelenting, uncunning, unsure

My burden
Mine to carry
My demise

My weakness
My escape
My disguise

My distinction
My destiny
My hate

My destruction
Soft skin to shove
Through the snow bank

Unforgetting, unbelieving, impure
Unrelenting, uncunning, unsure
So much human rot
But what else have I got?
