Pain
By Steve Cook
No cuts, no bruises, no broken bones
There’s nothing like this pain of being alone
No blood just pain and tears to gain
Heartache that can drive you insane
Emptiness fills my body, a soulless shell
I feel like I’ve been put through the fires of hell
Sleepless nights with no one to hold
My heart is growing bitter and cold
Drowning my tears and sorrows for years
With this empty liquor bottle I have no fears
Hangovers from hell I sit and dwell
About the cards I was dealt and the way they fell
When someone gets close I push them away
See no one can hurt you if there not here to stay
You’ll be lonely and sad, depressed for a while
But one of these days you’ll learn to smile
So hold your head up have patience you’ll find
That every heartache heals with time
