When beauty kind and full of grace
My head up in the stars
And tried with all his might
Sweet pain, don't you dare leave me alone
What did them in, not suicide
So we can establish that the pain is real
Was it more than they could bear?
He'd drive them back
Just a lengthy friendship
The beast he turned
And we'll make it, make it through
And hid his face
Sweet pain, it allows the blood to bleed
All of my heroes up and died
Leaving a bad need in its wake
Sweet pain, to want to come along
And magic to understand
For you, for you
And isn't it a crime?
In no position to give advice
I've been unaware but I've been living it all along
All I hear is their silent prayer
And you know every wisdom has its price
Can you feel what I feel?
But you learn to say goodbye
Sometimes a life that seems hard to take
Never ever seem to end, never end
Perchance to see Roxanne's
Eyes light up the sky again
You know no one should need to cry
Don't be afraid and I'll do the same for you
In pain of a heart forbade to fly
It just would not let me be
Sweet pain, can't you plainly see?
That makes me have to play
And a dream of how it could be
Sweet pain, from the moment of your birth
And it did not come for free
And I think that we both agree
And it didn't cost a dime
And my feet planted firmly on the ground
Sweet pain, is it so terribly wrong?
Sweet pain, if only for a while
Sad how, some friendships
Sweet pain, is sometimes what you need
When will I embrace this life I see?
Is soothed for a while by an old friend
And they might have something there
As you whisper beneath a sigh
Thinking back, the truth may be
I've been wondering for so long
And once upon a time
And we'll just hang on
There's got to be a reason it works out this way
But I'm here and I don't see where
But it never conquered me
You know they did not even care at all
And there's something deep inside me
Songs and a dream are left for me
Just a doorway and a key
Sweet pain, won't you make me feel at home?
Sweet pain, won't you make me smile?
You know I used to wonder why
Sweet pain, you know it matters to me
My heart it spoke and I wrote it down
Again denied the beast her hand
With a heart and a sword
