lyrics

I was born inside a trailer park a place where they all knew me
a liars son I was in disguise, I ran and hid from pain
I found home in obscurity, I thrived on being strange
local vagrants followed light bringing white crystals and pain

at 14 years I wandered far I wasted hours burning
i studied life and artistry with dying friends and pain
I learned to love a scattered mind she had three dozen cats
I walked across old paper plates avoiding feces bugs and pain

I took a journey in my mind, and still my brain is reeling,
relating with the tv stars I watch them enjoy pain
the bills are paid on time but the checks don’t have a meaning
I listen to the instruments, between beats I feel their pain

I left home before I could drive, escaped an abusive fate
my family they died quickly, left less memories than pain
I thought that I’d escaped it all, even skipped on out of town
but MRI’s don’t lie to you, they only foretell… pain

pain, pain, thats what keeps me sane
the moment that I’m comfortable the pain invades my brain
pain, pain, thats what keeps me sane
just when I am feeling fine the pain comes back again
