It's unsuspecting; it seems to find us now 
When we least suspect, it tries to pull us down 
Agonizing the pain, this loss of life 
Rips through us now, this is our fight 

Everything's a painful reminder 
How could the world do this to me?
And when I reach out to find you 
This world has taken you from me 

And if I ever said our time was not well spent
Those are the times I wish for now, it's my lament 
It is the crown I wear, it is the crown of shame 
Guilt I carry, to the world I place the blame 

I've gotta keep pushing and fighting, and moving on 
(when the pain is all I see) 
I've gotta keep moving forward and moving on 
(when the pain is all I need) 
I've gotta keep pushing and fighting, and moving on 
(when the pain is all I see) 
I've gotta keep moving forward and moving on 
(when the pain is all I need) 
The pain is all I need

Everything's a painful reminder 
How could the world do this to me?
And when I reach out for you 
This world has taken you from me 

(I've gotta keep living for you) 
They can't take you from me 
(And as I scream out to you) 
I hope that you hear me 

And if I ever said our time was not well spent
Those are the times I wish for now, it's my lament 
It is the crown I wear, it is the crown of shame 
Guilt I carry, to the world I place the blame 
To the world I place the blame 

Everything's a painful reminder 
How could the world do this to me?
And when I reach out for you 
This world has taken you from me 

(I've gotta keep living for you) 
They can't take you from me 
(And as I scream out to you) 
I hope that you hear me 
(I've gotta keep living for you) 
The pain is all I need 
(And as I scream out to you) 
The pain is all I need 

Hope is all I see
