Burden/Oakey)



It's hard I know to understand

Nothing lasts for ever

The things you used to say and do

The places you would go to meet

When you were together

You set your face against the tide

The harsh words that were spoken

But after all the anger

The shouting and the tears

You found your heart was broken



Fight the tears

Fight the fever

Don't give in

Soul deceiver



So hurt

With the pain you can't hide

So lost

And lonely inside

So hurt

When the feeling has died

So hurt

With the pain you can't hide

So lost

And lonely inside

So hurt

When the feeling has died



Just like the clock went back ten years

To make a new beginning

To work out how to live your life

To take the board and play the game

And recognise you're winning

Your memories mean nothing now

You're just a little older

Moving forward with the crowd

Silent fears but laughing loud

Not wiser but just bolder



Fight the tears

Fight the fever

Fight the hurt

Don't give up



So hurt

With the pain you can't hide

So lost

And lonely inside

So hurt

When the feeling has died

So hurt

With the pain you can't hide

So lost

And lonely inside

So hurt

When the feeling has died
