Pain
Sorrowful Gal


I'm in the grip of a thousand thorns
the slowly spreading stain
They tore into my beating heart
and filled my soul with pain

I thought I was first, but I was not
the race could not be won
The light that filled my life is dead
just like a long set sun

I do not know just what to do
with the anger that I feel
I'm holding on to it right now
it's the only thing that's real

I do not know just when it was
that my heart began to dance
But looking back from where I am
I never stood a chance

I wish that I could just pretend
pretend that I don't know
I know that it's impossible
my secret pain would show

So I will take a few steps back
because in this I've lost
I'll set my precious vampire free
and I will bear the cost
