Chapters

I am pain. I came down from the sky to the ground. If you dare cross my path, you will feel the aftermath. 'Cause I am pain. Until the end of time. And I will teach you where to draw the line. Look at me like a friend. I made you break when you wouldn't bend. And all the times you wouldn't learn. I made you crash, I made you burn. Well, I made you bleed. I made you cry. I taught you where to draw the line. There were times you didn't want to see tomorrow, but you held on, got stronger from the Times you wanted to scream, what's happening? Now you know it's what you needed to grow. And look at you now, so refined, like a diamond you shine. Well, I am pain. I came down from the sky to the ground. If you dare cross my path, you will feel the aftermath.
