Life Is Pain - Black Swamp Water

From the day you’re born

You learn right away

That from love you’re torn

And misery will stay

No one to help you

No one to protect you

'Cause life is pain, life is pain

That sinking feeling

Dragging you down

Your foothold keeling

And you hit the ground

Your face in the mirror

Can’t tell it clearer

It’s so plain, life is pain

They all say it’s fine

And that the sun will shine

And love will rule the day

And evil will go away

But then you’ll say

Every day is the same

Gut-wrenching ache

Puts your hopes to shame

And your spirit will break

Your ass on the line

Nothing will ever be fine

There’s no gain, life is pain

And then the day you die

Straight down you’ll go

No one hears you cry

But the devil below

He’ll laugh when you scream

You won’t wake from this dream

'Life was pain, death is the same

Life is pain

Life is pain

Life is pain

That’s right
