lyrics
pain
somebody take away this load off my back
I've been away too long I know I've been too much
now I know what it's like to live inside a trap
I couldn't turn the other way
somebody took the pain and threw it all away
I don't know if I'm free or if I'm still insane
strong enough for you
strong enough to make it through
I know I don't know who I am
Oh Lord I'm making time I know where I could be
I could be someone else a million miles from me
Oh Lord I feel it now the drugs have made it real
taking the pain away.
I keep on telling me the thoughts I need to hear
no I don't need your love an empty space is what I crave
There is such agony, loneliness is not for me
are we still getting there my friend
Oh Lord beat it down and never let it breathe
I played the stakes so high I thought I'd never leave
I played the game so long, I never was that good
taking the pain away
somebody take away this load off my back
I've been away too long I know I've been too much
now I know what it's like to live inside a trap
I couldn't turn the other way
somebody took the pain and threw it all away
I don't know if I'm free or if I'm still insane
strong enough for you
strong enough to make it through
I know I don't know who I am
Oh Lord I'm making time I know where I could be
I could be someone else a million miles from me
Oh Lord I feel it now the drugs have made it real
taking the pain away.
I keep on telling me the thoughts I need to hear
no I don't need your love an empty space is what I crave
There is such agony, loneliness is not for me
are we still getting there my friend
Oh Lord beat it down and never let it breathe
I played the stakes so high I thought I'd never leave
I played the game so long, I never was that good
taking the pain away
