Evidence in its broadest sense includes everything that is used to determine or demonstrate the truth of an assertion. Giving or procuring evidence is the process of using those things that are either (a) presumed to be true, or (b) were themselves proven via evidence, to demonstrate an assertion's truth. Evidence is the currency by which one fulfills the burden of proof.
Many issues surround evidence, making it the subject of much discussion and disagreement. In addition to its subtlety, evidence plays an important role in many academic disciplines, including science and law, adding to the discourse surrounding it.
An important distinction in the field of evidence is that some circumstantial evidence and direct evidence, or evidence that suggests truth as opposed to evidence that directly proves truth. Many have seen this line to be less-than-clear and significant arguments have arisen over the difference.
The burden of proof is the burden of providing sufficient evidence to shift a conclusion from an oppositional opinion. Whoever does not carry the burden of proof carries the benefit of assumption. Whoever bears the burden of proof must present sufficient evidence to move the conclusion to their own position. The burden of proof must be fulfilled both by establishing positive evidence and negating oppositional evidence.

I hold my breath and check the time
One minute no collapse
If you only knew what i would do for you
1/3 of grieving left
chorus
were going in, my heart a spin
when i tell you to remember
That no one will find you
a promise from the heart
If we part, my pulse will guide you thru
Be still for a moment everything depends upon you
If you die, I will die too
Once we were heroes but everythings changed since then
Now they recognize you too
2nd verse
I stayed to long, somethings wrong
You walk out of the picture
I hold my breath, and check the time
1 30 i collapse
chorus
repeat 3 or 4 times, cant remember
I am the evidence you passed the test and thats so good for you, hold on, will you read the letters i will send to you
Will i come along, will they let me out to take the test
