I am into your pain
I’m into your struggle
all your sorrows in vain, dear
in the crippling rain
I am into your pain
and the details you leave out
and the taste of your trauma
and the sound of your name
all I long to say
as I while away
a long, long way
from achieving something
you’ve got a way
of bringing it all out of me
I want to know you
and not just biblically
I like the cut of your brain
and the way that you feel stained
and aloof and estranged, dear
like people think you’re insane
I’m really into your pain
how you don’t follow the grain
like you got on the wrong train
and then decided to stay
all I long to say
as I while away
a long, long way
from achieving something
you’ve got a way
of bringing it all out of me
but if you wanna know me,
I hope you realize
I’m really into my pain
it’s an ancient affair
it’s as old as the moon, dear
and going nowhere real soon
I’m really into my pain
it’s as long as my hair
and it’s stronger than booze, dear
it was my very first muse
all I long to say
as I while away
a long, long way
from believing something
you’ve got a way
of bringing it all out of me
and I won’t make you stay
when you move on
