The Same Pain

I was reading a story about a captain on a ship, before i knew it i was bitting my lip in pain, The same pain i felt when i found i would never see you again... And i Drempt i would travel to far away lands, Hands that covered my eyes, They lied and they cried for what seemed like for ever but never knew pain, The same pain i felt when i found i would never see you again... I went into the music world to get out with out a shout, no motion in the heavy weight bout a knew i'd have to face, No place to go no words to show the pain i dealt with, The same pain i felt when i found i would never see you again... I chased me, Like a bird on a rotisserie basted me, every where i ran i found it hounded me, pounded me into the ground with every sound and ever breath, And death didn't seam so far away, and i could have been dead already. And heavy became my eyelids and they put bids on me to see that i shouldn't survive, stay alive, but weren't they surprised when i showed up on their door step_ with you on my shoulder. and farther and farther over the edge i flew and colder and harder over time i grew and that pain grew too. The same pain i felt when i found i would never see you again... And i traveled the world, and unfurled my devotion to you. and i went deep into jungle to get high, on a train or on a park bench. And i had no bread and i had no dough and i had no flow and i had no know. but to the county i fled to conquer my demons, and leaving me the ability to shine broke through and i grew and became the man that you see today even though they had the nerve to say what they said because in my head i loved them anyway. and then it happened, so quickly it was masterful, like Dick Dastardly to Penellopy she couldn't see him come up on her, and when i turned around and you were staring into my eyes.... well there you were, And that pain... That pain i say, that pain i say, That pain i say i felt when i found i would never see you again......... It went away.
