Phora - pain is all we know
00
Copied!
{intro}
Pain is all we've known
(?...)
Wouldn't we be better off alone?
Burnin' lights in the sun
Salvation is so close (?...)
Darlin', i hope you understand
Yeah (boy fifty)
Uh
{verse 1}
When i was young, i was abused as an adolescent
By a man my mother loved, but she was too defenseless
A prisoner inside my home, i never felt protected
The scars and bruises that i wore, they told me, "just accept it"
Accept the fact that i was helpless, couldn't understand
The pain and trauma as a child, my blood was on his hands
Father nowhere to be found, i tried to be a man
I tried to talk to god, i needed love, it wasn't in his plans
I closed my eyes and try to sleep away the thoughts
But the more i tried to run away from pain, the more it fought
All this anger in my heart, don't let it show, all i was taught
Since then i kept my feelings hidden, locked inside a box
And i started to question if they ever gave a fuck about me
Started to question their intentions and the ones around me
Started to question why this pain is all i know
Maybe i'm better off alone, this world is probably better off without me
{chorus}
Pain is all we've known
(?...)
Wouldn't we be better off alone?
Burnin' lights in the sun
Salvation is so close (?...)
Darlin', i hope you understand
{verse 2}
Yeah
Habitual pain, we pass it down and we have no remorse
Traumatized from what i've seen, but i ain't have a choice
It's hard to love, i seen my family get destroyed
A world of sorrow in this life, it's somethin' i know i can't avoid, damn
Was always told the pain controls you if you let it
Was always told the first step is the acceptance
The trust you give, sometimes they use it as a weapon
Why is it always people that we love that hurt us? i don't get it (fuck)
And truth be told, i question morals 'cause how these people do me
I never open up my feelings, it's detrimental to me
I ain't used to gettin' close 'cause how these people use me
And then they'll paint me as a villain, this shit so confusin'
I think about it, late nights, when i'm in bed
Close my eyes, but i can't hide the monsters in my head
My heart's drownin' in regret 'cause of things i should've said
Come take the bitter out my bones and rip my heart up out my chest, damn
{chorus}
