Precious Pain
Melissa Etheridge · Melissa Etheridge [1988]
Everybody's got a hunger no matter where they are
Everybody clings to their own fear, everybody hides some scar.
Ooo, precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain.
Everybody's got a reason to abandon their plan
How can I think of tomorrow? with my sorrow in hand.
Ooo, precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain.
Each road that I walk down reminds me of you
This whole town is haunted
There'll never be anything new.
Precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain...
Everybody clings to their own fear, everybody hides some scar.
Ooo, precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain.
Everybody's got a reason to abandon their plan
How can I think of tomorrow? with my sorrow in hand.
Ooo, precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain.
Each road that I walk down reminds me of you
This whole town is haunted
There'll never be anything new.
Precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain...
