You do not know pain I repeat You do not know pain Not until you have watched the words "I do not care" Fall out of the lips of the person you hold most dear You do not know pain Not until they look at you and smile While you fall apart You do not know pain Not until they act as if the world is well As yours comes crumbling around your feet You do not know pain Not until they have nothing left to say Letting you pour yourself into apologies you have no right saying You do not know pain Not until they ignore your very presence As you walk around turning into the ghost they want you to be You do not know pain Not until your love and your heart belong to such a cold soul A cold soul that once warmed your insides and reminded you of hope You do not know pain Not until they steal your last ray of sun And give it to someone who once meant nothing when you meant the world You do not know pain You do not know Pain
