It's unsuspecting; it seems to find us now
When we least suspect, it tries to pull us down
Agonizing pain, this loss of life
Rips through us now, this is our fight
Everything's a painful reminder
How could the world do this to me?
And when I reach out to find you
This world has taken you from me
And if I ever said our time was not well spent
Those are the times I wish for now, it's my lament
It is the crown I wear, it is the crown of shame
Guilt I carry, to the world I place the blame
I've gotta keep pushing and fighting, and moving on
(When the pain is all I see)
I've gotta keep moving forward and moving on
(When the pain is all I need)
I've gotta keep pushing and fighting, and moving on
(When the pain is all I see)
I've gotta keep moving forward and moving on
(When the pain is all I need)
The pain is all I need
Everything's a painful reminder
How could the world do this to me?
And when I reach out for you
This world has taken you from me
(I've gotta keep living for you)
They can't take you from me
(And as I scream out to you)
I hope that you hear me
And if I ever said our time was not well spent
Those are the times I wish for now, it's my lament
It is the crown I wear, it is the crown of shame
Guilt I carry, to the world I place the blame
To the world I place the blame
Everything's a painful reminder
How could the world do this to me?
And when I reach out for you
This world has taken you from me
(I've gotta keep living for you)
They can't take you from me
(And as I scream out to you)
I hope that you hear me
(I've gotta keep living for you)
The pain is all I need
(And as I scream out to you)
The pain is all I need
Hope is all I see
