Love the Pain (Extended Version)

Like you want I wait for you to save me
You just stand there smiling while I'm breaking
Why do you only love the pain

Give you every part of me worth taking
You come back just so you can break me
Why do you only love the pain

Yeah
I've been working
I've been feeling like nothing's certain
Cut the lights and then draw the curtains
No one sees when I'm really hurting
Picture perfect

What they think I am
Dreams are in the air
But they never land
Hard to let it go
Hard to give a hand
More I let you in
More I break again

All of this time I feel so empty
Look at a my gas tank, been on empty
Running from pain and how it tempts me
Looking for God and hope he bless me
Just gotta keep it real

Pray one day he let me heal
Heart of gold in a box of steel
Keep it going, only thing I feel, yeah
Just look up

Only place you gotta go
Don't give up
I can't count how many times
I felt like I just ain't enough

Only thing you gotta be
Is someone that you love
Only thing you gotta see
Is see how far you've come

I see it more when I drop this pen
Write it down when it hurts again
In my heart is a lion's den
All this pain that I try to mend
All this time nights start to blend
Hurts me more when I let you in
But I love this feeling that you give

Like you want I wait for you to save me
You just stand there smiling while I'm breaking
Why do you only love the pain
Give you every part of me worth taking
You come back just so you can break me
Why do you only love the pain

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Since I was young I felt different
Didn't know why, something was missing
Found it in music
Found it and used it
Started writing now I'm truly living

All started off one decision
When I chose to pick up the pen
Always knew I was destined for fame
But man I didn't know when

Now I'm all in and I'm feeling the pain
At all angles, like a protractor
But I fucking love it
It keeps me going

I'm the one and only
I'm the benefactor
So aimed at me?
Pull the trigger

Better shoot for the head
Cause I love the pain, I love the rush
Not giving up, not giving in, till the end
