Pain Redefined

Fading, falling, lost in forever

Will I find a way to keep it together?

Am I strong enough to last through the weather

in the hurricane of my life?

Can it be a conscious decision?

As I look for ways to alter my vision?

Am I speeding towards another collision

in the alley ways of my life?



Memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Those who have fallen

And memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Those who have fallen



And please believe me

That my eyes deceive me

Don't stand me up

Just leave me

I have fallen again

This is the end

Pain redefined



Shaking, burning up with the fever

In the realm of pain, I am the deceiver

I will lie to myself, so I can believe her

as she dissembles my life

I cannot dispel the illusion

All my hopes and dreams are drowned by confusion

Can I find a way to make the solution that will

reconfigure my life?



Memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Those who have fallen

And memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Memories don't lie

You know better than

Those who have fallen



And please believe me

That my ears deceive me

Don't stand me up

Just leave me

I have fallen again

This is the end

Pain redefined



And I know that stillness shatters

We have all been frightened by the sound

Of footsteps on the pavement of our lives

I stand and fight

I'm not afraid to die

Elochai, bury me tonight



Please believe me

That the world deceives me

Don't stand me up

Just leave me

I have fallen again

This is the end
