Pain Magnet

She cries out all her tears
To put out the forest fires
The smoke makes more appear
Still the flames climb higher

A national emergency
Alarm bells sit dormant
Rising casualties
Matches her growing torment

She's a pain magnet
Give her all you've got
Those around her get better
However she does not

She'll take all of your pain
And keep it locked away
But no one stops to ask her
If she's doing ok

A beautiful swan in a tar pit
Sludge splashes her wings
The bright white has diminished a bit
Sadness creeps up when she sings

Her wings are worn and weary
After many years of inaction
She's tried to break free
But she can never gain the traction

She's a pain magnet
Give her all you've got
Those around her get better
However she does not

She'll take all of your pain
And keep it locked away
But no one stops to ask her
If she's doing ok

A brilliant desert oasis
A miracle for those in need
They come on a daily basis
To drink and to feed

But slowly this beautiful paradise
Begins to fade and run dry
What once was thriving and bright
Has now begun to die

She's a pain magnet
Give her all you've got
Those around her get better
However she does not

She'll take all of your pain
And keep it locked away
But no one stops to ask her
If she's doing ok
