Pain From the Past
Lyrics:
Feelings coming up
From I don’t know where
I don’t want to feel it
But avoid it I don’t dare
========
CHORUS: ‘Cause it’s pain from the past you see
Coming up to say hello to me
Just keep it a movin’ until I’m free
Let it move on through and away from me
========
They say it gets easier
As the old layers heal
I can tell I am stronger
And I’m more grounded and real
But sometimes it’s thick and
It pulls me back down
To how I felt as a child
When love was not around
========
CHORUS: It’s just pain from the past you see
Comin’ up to say hello to me
Just keep it a movin’ until I’m free
Let it move on through and away from me
========
What happened back then
Can’t be made right
But I can love that little child in me
With all my might
I can protect her
And soothe her pain
I deserved love back then
And now I’m gonna make it rain
=======
BRIDGE: Make it rain love love love
Coming down on me
Make it rain love love love
Until I’m free
Wash away all of the doubt
And the fear and shame
Until I’m a bright shining light again
With no more pain
========
Repeat 1st verse: Feelings comin up
From I don’t know where
I don’t want to feel it
But avoid it I don’t dare
==========
CHORUS: ‘Cause it’s pain from the past you see
Comin’ up to say hello to me
Just keep it on movin until I’m free
Let it move on through and away from me.
Let it move on through and away from me (slower to end)
