The Memory of Pain

Got another to live with 

I got room for one more 

But what the hell does it matter

And who the hell's keeping score 

The rage inside me is boiling

Slowly pushing the day

I'm holding fast for that someone 

Worth every ounce of the pain 

The heights that you would take me 

A question now of maybe 

The past that you pine under 

Is what I'm here to conquer

Run the rope twice over 

Untie the knot if you can 

Said goodbye to the riddles

By the sword in my hand

Marked again by the forearm 

Cold steel under the skin 

Shot straight up into my head 

The battle there to begin 

The heights that you would show me 

For our own eyes only 

The song you hear in your head 

For one unending moment 

Coz the lights go on forever 

On the road to never 

And the memories within us

Recall the pain that was
