Pain

Since I was young
I learnt that life wasn't going to be an easy fight
I knew I would have to find myself to survive
I took the tears and hide them all away

I had to learn
How to smile each day, how to face the world
How to heal the scars from every battle and every fall
How to cry myself to sleep without a sound

Yes, I grew stronger
But deep inside all I feel is

Pain
All I've ever known is pain
All I've ever felt is hurt
Someone please take it away
Take it away
And yes
I'm not afraid to say
That all I need is love
That all I need is love

So here I am
Standing once again until the storm has passed
Holding in my hands every piece of a broken heart
Trying to hold on when I'm about to fall

Yes, I am stronger
But deep inside all I feel is

Pain
All I've ever known is pain
All I've ever felt is hurt
Someone please take it away
Take it away
And yes
I'm not afraid to say
That all I need is love
That all I need is love
All I want is for love to guide me
Love to take me home
All I ask is for love to find me
Love to carry on
