The Reason For Pain

I used to live my life in darkness
Hiding from the light in the land of the blind
Out of sight and out of mind
When I lose all sense of solace
That's when I close my eyes
To see what it like
To be lost in black abyss of eternal night

You are the reason, the reason for pain
Take all this pain away from me
Before I finally justify suicide
You are the reason
For these tears that fall like rain
There's nothing to gain by living in vain
So I need to decide to do or die

I used to waste away in silence
Dying with my pride while the self sacrifice
Of my vices I couldn't deny
I was cursed to search for somthing
That I'd never find unless I utilized
The tourniquet and syringe
That condemned my life

You are the reason, the reason for pain
Take all this pain away from me
Before my suicide is justified
You are the reason
For these tears that fall like rain
There's nothing to gain by living this way
So I need to decide to do or die

All I see is darkness and all I feel is pain
Someone take this endless agony away
All I see are shadows of who I used to be
Before the rope of broken
hopes and dreams strangled me

You are the reason, the reason for pain
Take all this pain away from me
Before I truly try to end my life
You are the reason
For the tears that fall like rain
There's nothing to gain by living in vein
So I need to decide to do or die

I used to live my life in darkness
Hiding from the light in the land of the blind
Out of sight and out of my mind
