There's a reason to be happy baby
There's a reason to be sad
Oh, there's a reason to throw it away
I find it so hard to relate these days
To anything or anyone at all
Everything that matters
Everything that ever will
On a distant shoreline
Way across the western hills
Oh, I can't seem to get there you know
See my life's been put on, oh it's been put on hold
Oh, the time keeps slipping away
See you can fool yourself but not very long
I think I've been fooling myself my whole life long
Taking everything that matters
I watch you leave without a care
Don't you know, don't you know
That's the hardest burden to bear
Look in the mirror I see the lines on my face
Look in my eyes I can feel all the pain
Of everything I've been ashamed of baby in the past
There's enough regret that lasts
And I can't deny what I understand
If you live your life like a one night stand
You wind up alone and lost, oh and afraid
With nothing to say
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
See you can fool yourself but not very long
I think I've been fooling myself my whole life long
Taking everything that matters
I watch you leave without a care
Don't you know, don't you know
That's the hardest burden to bear
Yeah, that's the hardest burden to bear
Oh, the hardest burden to bear
Baby, the hardest burden to bear
