In trying to please everyone else and fitting into what they want us to be, we eventually lose who we really are.
lyrics
PAIN FOR LOVE
VERSE 1
Is it true that we were meant for something more
But we get caught up with the snares left at the door
Hungry for what we don’t have
Compromise yourself for happiness
It’s enough to make you mad
TAG
Pain for love and pain for peace
Pain for love and pain for peace
VERSE 2
Why do we try so hard to please others
I want to be like everyone else
Is it possible to be yourself
Instead we run from disillusion
VERSE 3
Why do we bleed
Just to appease
Everybody
CHORUS
Again, again, again, again
We try, we try, we try, we try
LAST CHORUS
Again, again, again, again (around in circles we go)
We try, we try, we try, we try (around in circles we go)
Again, again, again, again (when will this madness end)
We try, we try, we try, we try
