Pain, pain, don’t go away,

Come again every day.

You are the only thing inside of me,

You keep me in touch with reality.

Pain, pain, don’t go away.

Keep me sane every day.

You are the only thing that reaches me;

You teach me that I can still feel things.

Pain, pain, you’re here to stay.

I think you’re stopped,

You’re just beginning.

I beckon for you when my life is thinning.

Pain, pain, do you have to stay?

Day and night,

Don’t you ever sleep?

Sometimes, don’t I need a break?

One time, can I not ache?

Pain, pain, please go away! 

What happened to the other feelings inside of me?

I want to have happy, excited, funny,

Not always angry, sad, and hurting.

Pain, pain, you must go away!

Pain, pain…
