Story Behind The Song
I read a book my pastor gave me called How to Stop the Pain.The book was about judgement and the suffering we bring on our self because of it. \\
Song Description
We suffer unneeded pain because we presume peoples motives and hold on to unforgiveness because we make judgements that are probably inacurate and make dicisions based on those judgements.And we can`t even see it until we are born spiritualy

Lyrics
I'm a non-profit prophet
what I'm pushins' not for sale
I see the holy city
I see death and hell
They're coming down the track
like a run away train
and everybody's wondering
How to stop the pain.
I see pain in their eyes
I see pain in their smile
They wear it like a coat
and everybody's dressed in style
We're caught up in a tail spin
like a dying plane
and everybody's wondering
how to stop the pain
A voice from the past says that we
don't know what we do
they said he was a lair
every word he spoke was true
we wear our unforgiveness
like a ball and chain
and everybody's wondering
how to stop the pain.
Our judgements bringing judgement
we are reaping what we've grown
the word that we speak
they are the seeds that we've sown
we say you never and you
always and you're driving
me insane
and is it any wonder we cannot stop the pain.
I see pain in their eyes
I see pain in their smile
they wear like a coat and
everybody's dressed in style
We're caught up in a tail spin
like a dying plane and everybody's wondering
how to stop the pain
We listen to the voices of unrealistic fears
we let them make the choices that we suffer with for years
the exit door to safety is marked with
a crimson stain
and everybody's wondering
how to stop the pain.
The exit door to safety is marked with
a crimson stain
and everybody's wondering
how to stop the pain
