The Pain Becomes Alive (Music & lyrics: Saarinen)

As I just have reached the surface
she pulls me under again
Don't know if I can hold my breath much longer

I was standing on the top of the highest mountain
when she pushed me over the edge
and ever since I've kept on falling, crawling, calling for help

The bleeding marks of her betrayal
are carved into my spine

And none of the things I've done
could help me forget I'm less than one
And none of the words I've heard
could ever ease this torment

(Ooo-ooo) The pain becomes alive
it burns like a twist of knife
(Ooo-ooo) The suffering is my bride
always by my side
(Ooo-ooo) My scars torn open wide
she is the salt inside
(Ooo-ooo) She killed us with a smile
I never said goodbye

Waking up inside this empty shell
that once had felt so alive
Don't know if I can keep this up much longer

All the days seem oh, so hollow
when all emotions are drained
Every moment I keep on fading away

The painful memory of her treason
is burning in my mind

And none of the times that've gone
could heal these wounds of mine
I never felt so alone
until the day love died

(Ooo-ooo) The pain becomes alive
it burns like a twist of knife
(Ooo-ooo) The suffering is my bride
always by my side
(Ooo-ooo) My scars torn open wide
she is the salt inside
(Ooo-ooo) She killed us with a smile
I never said goodbye

(Ooo-ooo) The pain becomes alive
it burns like a twist of knife
(Ooo-ooo) The suffering is my bride
always by my side
(Ooo-ooo) My scars torn open wide
she is the salt inside
(Ooo-ooo) She killed us with a smile
I never said goodbye
I never said goodbye
I never said goodbye
