To Pain I Must Abide

TO PAIN I MUST ABIDE

When the sun is up to her best
My hope is to have my scars justified 
And when darkness arrives in haste
My hope is to thrust the pain aside 

But if all that I confide in fail to provide the tide way 
When I am floating with tide,
My zeal becomes stultified 
And I realize to pain;
I MUST ABIDE

I bite the bullet every time my scars get wide
And I strive to pryde
The misery from my inside 
But in agony column I ride
Yet every time I try to wrest the pain from every side
I collide with the truth that to pain;
I MUST ABIDE
