Lyrics
RAGE AND PAIN
EF#AB11
EF#AB11
EF#m7
I'm offended by my brother
E/G#A
I hate my father and my mother
F#m7 E/G# AB11
And my hatred for myself just fans the flame
E F#m7
I wouldn't want to hurt them
E/G#A
So I muffle the explosion
F#m7 E/G#A B11
But I'm shattered by the blasting just the same
EG#m
Rage and pain, hear the thunder
A E/G#
Rage and pain, it makes me wonder
F#m7E/G#
Lord I need a place to go
A E/G#F#m7 B11
Is this all I'll ever know?
I'm outraged by the world
And I'm shocked to know that you made it
But it hurts the most to feel like I'm to blame
I feel so damned helpless
When I just can't grip those reins
And nothing I can do can bring a change
Rage and pain, hear the thunder
Rage and pain, a stabbing hunger
Lord I need a place to go
Is this all I'll ever know?
Bridge:
No, no, no, because
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes with the morning light
If I ask you how you're feeling
You're obliged to say 'just fine'
But I look into your eyes and see your shame
He's given you emotion
But you mumble your devotion
When it would mean much more to Him to hear you say
