Does the pain go away
   does it ever fade someday
Can you count all the tears
   can you count the number of years
How many memories are there still
   how many people did you kill
Where is the love you once knew
   where are the people who said they'd be true
Why does the sun shine red
   why do these feelings cloud your head
Who do you turn to when you cry
   who holds your hand when you're ready to die
What blocks out the pain in your eyes
   what makes you tell those lies
Do you feel like you are falling
   do you know who keeps calling
When do you remember most of the past
   when do you realize nothing's going to last
Isn't there anything you'd love to do
   isn't there something that'd keep you true
Don't you sometimes feel
   don't you sometimes want to kneel
Won't the endless hunger die
   won't you just give up and cry
It can't be worth it to go on
   it can't be worth it carry on
