The pain hurts, deep and low
Feel it stewing in my soul
It burns like a lit match
Feel the fire
After awhile
I get kind of tired

Can you give me your protocol?
'Will work for some, but not all'?
Candle's burning and it's reached the end
On this eternal journey
Will I ever find a friend?

You've hurt me
So many times before
This will pass
After the pain soars
Deep inside my heart, so clear
The old me moved away last year

Can you give me your protocol?
'Will work for some, but not all'?
Candle's burning and it's reached the end
On this eternal journey
Will I ever find a friend?

And my heart could not bear
The pain of doubts
Always trying
To figure things out
But now everything's clear to me
The freedom from pain will not come free
