MELISSA ETHERIDGE LYRICS



"Precious Pain"


Everybody's got a hunger

No matter where they are

Everybody clings to their own fear

Everybody hides some scar



Precious pain

Empty and cold but it keeps me alive

I gave it my soul so that I could survive

Keeping me safe in these chains

Precious pain



Everybody's got a reason

To abandon their plan

How can I think of tomorrow

With my sorrow in hand



Precious pain

Empty and cold but it keeps me alive

I gave it my soul so that I could survive

Keeping me safe in these chains

Precious pain



Each road that I walk down

Reminds me of you

This whole town is haunted

There'll never be anything new



Precious pain

Empty and cold but it keeps me alive

I gave it my soul so that I could survive

Keeping me safe in these chains

Precious pain
