The Cure For Pain

Lyrics for The Cure For Pain

The cure for pain is in the pain So it's there that you'll find me Until again I forget And again He reminds me "Hear my voice in your head And think of me kindly" Let me be, let me be Lowered down like a casket And buried just below her chest "Whatever I was searching for It was never you," she says The record ended long ago We go on dancing nonetheless I opened like a locket "If you're ever cold," I wrote "there's warmth inside me I'm the pocket of an old winter coat." But where she used to say "I need you." Now, "I don't" You'd only make the softest sound Like sugar pouring into tea Darling let your self pour down And dissolve into the Love Who revealed Himself there quietly to me Jesus have mercy on us (Silence before hidden track "I Never Said I was Brave" starts) You might sleep, but you'll never dream Onward, progress, or so it seems You might laugh, but you'll never smile Come on in and waste away a while My stomach swears there's comfort there In the warmth of the blankets on your bed My stomach's always been a liar I'll believe it's lies again No use in saying how I'm sorry So I'm trying not to speak I'll sing in silence as I lay beside you With my face against, against your cheek When dreams of rings of flowers fade and blur Giving way to that familiar ill Come over, come over Where I'm waiting for you No use in saying how I'm sorry So I'm trying not to speak I'll sing in silence as I lay beside you My face against, against your cheek No use in saying (If you'd unlatch the window) How I'm sorry (If you'd let me... ) So I'm trying (If you'd give me another... ) Not to speak I'll sing in silence (If you'd forget the pain... ) As I lay beside you (If you'd unlatch the window) With my face (If you'd let me lay there on your floor) Against your cheek
