The Pain for Your Pleasure - Joan Shelley

I will understand

That will be my curse

I might hold your hand

So you aren’t so lonely

It will get worse

Before you feel better

It’s gonna burn at first

The soft parts of your heart

So let it slide down, let it pour out your feet

With your arms down, don’t defend anything

Till it’s done, and you will be here when it’s done

Would you come by my heart

And fix me up dear

Fill in the holes as if you plan to live here

I won’t ask for much, I’ll try not to

And watch from the sides

As your demons they roll through you

So let it slide, let it pour out your feet

With your arms down, don’t defend anything

Till it’s done, and you will be here when it’s…

You know I will understand, I’ve been out in the weather

And scared to hell when the sun don’t shine

You know I will understand, we are lost all together

The pieces I find to be useful (?)

You know I will understand, it’s a pain for your pleasure

That cuts cold and deep as it has before

You know I will understand, I’ve been out in the weather

And scared to hell when the sun don’t shine

You know I will understand, we are lost all together

The pieces I find to be useful

You know I will understand, we are lost all together

The pieces I find to be useful

You know I will understand, we are lost all together

The pieces I find to be useful

You know I will understand, we are lost all together

The pieces I find to be useful

Ohhhhhh…
