Befriend Your Pain

Befriend your pain
Pain drags time out
Tree sap falls in slow motion
Suspended
Tension
Will it ever hit the ground?

Ground yourself in reality
This pain is real
Look it in the eye and say 'Hi'
Fantasy cannot protect you from truth

Truth is subjective
Your story might be different from theirs
Though they lived it too
Tell yourself the story that rings true most to you

Don't embellish it with lies to make you seem victimised
You know you're both hurt, you're both cryin' at night
(You're cryin' at night)
Ain't no quick fix or magic tricks to make it disappear
When nobody's wrong and nobody is right
(Nobody is right)

This is your time to learn
This is your time to grow
The other's heart might burn but do you really wanna know?
(Really wanna know)

Know nothing
You think you're an expert on pain- you know nothing
You have lived a life of sunshine and fear of the dark
(Do do do do do do do do)
Look inside
(Look inside, look inside)
This pain is not the worst thing that can happen to you

Pain is just another part
Pain is just another piece
Make peace, make friends
It's gonna stay 'til it ends
And you know it will come again
(It will come again)
Yes, it'll be back again
Befriend your pain
