There Goes My Pain Lyrics

A wealth of wasted youth

And clods to call my friends

A life of fleeting valor

And whiskey in my grin

What's inside but foolish pride

To act as such a clown

The issue's something distant

And the rabble I'm around

There goes my pain

There goes my pain

It's reaching out tonight

From hell to highest heights

I'll drown these bundled sorrows

Then I'll find another fight

And dare to drag my name

Through the narrow halls of shame

There's just one beast to blame

There goes my pain

It's hard to live like this

It's hard to live at all

My brain is worn and broken

My past it ain't no ball

I'm hurtin' you 'cause I'm hurtin' too

As if that's some excuse

I need to learn to walk the line

There's so much more to lose

There goes my pain

There goes my pain

It's bare for all to see

So hopelessly hungry

It's time to deal some damage

Not least of all to me

And dare to drag my name

Through the narrow halls of shame

There's just one beast to blame

There goes my pain

Sometimes a ruckus feels so righteous

Sometimes discord feels so deserved

But every time it ends in crisis

Every time someone gets burned

I need to treat my body better

I need to learn to let some go

Pick up the pace before it's over

I ain't killin' myself slow

It's creeping into view

And coming after you

It's hungry for companions

Poor trouble needs a crew

And dare to drag my name

Thru the narrow halls of shame

There's just one beast to blame

There goes my pain
