I Thought I'd Love You Through The Pain

We used to talk to god when we felt the weight
We'd ask him if he's still in pain
Or if he made it to a better place
So we could carry him on as a metaphor
We still pull pine needles from under our skin
A soul transfixed to a void within
And there's a shadow in the dark
And I can't distinguish the features
But I still know it's you

I thought I'd love you through the pain

Nurture me to live again
After storming the gates of heaven
Beseech his body to a temporal shell forever

I'll tear the threads you've sewn for the hell of it
I'll hemorrhage for a worthless cause
Sever the tie just to stoke the fires of loss
I'll watch your halo fade for the hell of it
I'll hemorrhage barren of faith
Drown your prayers just to stoke the fires of loss

We still pull pine needles from under our skin
A soul transfixed to a void within
A shadow in the dark
That I'll never repay my debt to
I wish you knew that I thought I'd love you through the pain

I'll tear the threads you've sewn for the hell of it
I'll bleed for a worthless cause
Sever the tie just to stoke the fires of loss

I thought I'd find myself within your embrace again
I thought I'd love you through the pain
I thought I'd always hold you close
With your strength unscathed
I thought I'd love you through the pain
But I just don't know how
