  • I am sick of this place of death
    With a pace that's set
    And you know the pessimistic bend
    Just to watch you break
    Practice what you preach
    Separate skin from the bone
    Digging at my flesh
    Like a schizophrenic with a blade
    Fingers tracing scars
    Mapping out reminders of just how much I can take

    Pressure in my brain
    My shoulders take the weight
    Back's about to break

    Pain
    Every day that I awake
    In my blood and through my veins
    Now there's nothing left that you can take away from me
    Pain

    Because I've seen it before
    I've lived it before
    I've been there before
    Incarnate
    So don't you ever underestimate me
    Daily death
    Crooning in my ear
    Things I wanna hear
    Turn my head and bite my tongue
    Spitting blood on my pre-determined grave
    This is all a game

    Pressure in my brain
    My shoulders take the weight
    Back's about to break
    This is all a game

    Pain
    Every day that I awake
    In my blood and through my veins
    Now there's nothing left that you can take away from me
    Pain
    Every day that I awake
    In my blood and through my veins
    Now there's nothing left
    Nothing left that you can take from me

    (Pain, pain, pain, pain)
    Footprints in the sand
    That can't be washed away
    It breeds while we're asleep
    It feeds when we awake
    Burdens of the flesh
    Our bodies are so weak
    We seek the spirit's truth
    To turn the other cheek

    Turning the other cheek to see a world broken, lost and vain
    How can you ever look at someone else the same way?
    We all bleed
    The human race
    Have some empathy
    We are all in pain
    If we commiserate
    Then we can share the weight
    We are all the same
    We are all in

    Pain
    Every day that I awake
    In my blood and through my veins
    Now there's nothing left that you can take away from me
    Pain
    Every day that I awake
    In my blood and through my veins
    Now there's nothing left
    Nothing left that you can take away from me Writer/s: AARON PAULEY, ALAN ASHBY, AUSTIN CARLILE, DAVID BENDETH, PHIL MANANSALA, VALENTINO ARTEAGA
