I wish, I knew all the words
to take your pain away
but the truth is that, there are no words
it doesn’t work that way
I cannot wave a magic wand
to make anyone feel better
but I can be a friend to you
and we can fight the pain together
pain is what we have to feel
to help us heal inside
and strength is what we gather
from the many tears we cry
and when the tears have all dried up
and all the pain subsides
we learn that pain is a tool we need
to help us all survive
without pain and suffering
our lives would have no purpose
it’s all the trials and tribulations
that make living life so worth it.
