Burden
(music & words: Mikka)

[Couplet 1]

This nameless illness we sustained
This stillborn flame we maintained
These bitter scars were part of us
What can you learn from nothingness?

You’ve sold your weakness with this mean
Nepenthe have withdrawn all your pain
What if you didn’t made this hasty choice?
Would you have finally cured of me?

[Pont]

Can you say a single word? My mouth is sewn
Can you remind a single emotion? Blank is my brain
How can I get our moments back? Consider all dead
Can you see that I’m the strongest link of our chain?

[Couplet 2]

Memories start to ravel in my head
From most recent to the oldest ones
Which place can have it now if I’m the only one to have lived it?
What could a unique survivor of unicellular memory do?
(How) can I sing this wordless song, how can I play this noteless song

[Refrain]

Good old days never had been yet
Each prayer accepted, each wish resigned
This burden I will care
The eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

Clean all and stay….
But not the same…
Vanished away…
The pale smoke of this old flame

[Fin]

Burden
Burden
Burden
Burden…
