Pain Pain Go Away
(Gironda/Weiland)



It was the best thing I’d ever done and the worst I ever did
Hoping it would be pain free who was I trying to kid

I keep covering up the scars with a life a life so busy and hectic
Trying not to live out on a limb who am I trying to kid

I put another little Band-Aid on a big open wound
And I’ll pretend it will mend on its own sometime soon

Pain Pain go away come again some other day
I’m feeling fine, pick another time that’s what I’ll always say
Pain go away

I know bad things happen to good people that’s just the way it is
But I don’t bleed and I don’t need, who am I trying to kid
I get reminded, tapped on the shoulder, when I least expect it
I shrug it off, I can’t go soft, who am I trying to kid

All the time I spend trying to defend myself against the power
I can just submit and get it over with
But then I’d have to admit I’m no tower

No Really I'm Fine

Pain Pain Go Away

I’LL BE HERE

It’s getting late, but it’s worth the wait
To help you through your despair
Not a hopeless case, no lesson is a waste
Life is sometimes unfair
Whatever in the world that I can do to help you see it through
I’ll be here for you, for you

I’ll be here for you, till the day is through
Whatever it takes to give you the strength
To do what I know you can do
I’ll be here for you

The look in your eyes, so naive so wise
Distrust of your own capable hands
I can love and adore you, but I can’t do it for you
It’s all in your own master plan
No matter what you intend to do
What I say remains true: I’ll be here for you, for you

There’s work to be done, so don’t you turn and run
It will all become perfectly clear
What to do with your life, I’ll be by your side
With each and every tear
If I can make you see your own truth and your own beauty
As you have for me, for me
