Don't bother walking a mile in my shoes, try living a day inside my head instead

Pain
Pain
Go away, leave me alone shoo-shoo, be gone!
you need to leave now,
I want to live again, somehow.
You gave me a lot, that's true when all feelings died, I still had you
you stood by me, never parted
but I wish our relationship had never started.
I gave you everything I had to give I didn't remember how to live
without your numbing presence without you as a pretence
you were mine, I was yours
we closed a deal,of course
you were never going to leave me alone, not after everything else was gone
But I'm leaving you now
you'll find a way of living, somehow
I need happy and love and peace
understand this is important...please
I will never forget our life together
but I think this is for the better
you need someone else to tutor
and hey, it's not hard finding a succesor
the world is full of people like I used to be who can't feel, have let all emotions run free
who need you to survive
who need to feel pain to be alive
because when one feels numb and looses all senses and you arrive, one can start rebuilding fences
one learns to feel again, step by step, day by day until happy, love and peace find a way
And those three... they tickle toes and touch ones heart
See? That's how I made my start
by letting you in first, allowing you to kindle the fire inside, bringing warmth, hope and desire.
So, my dear friend pain,
I hope you'll visit once and again
to remind me of the lessons I had to learn
and to watch the flickering fire burn.
I loved you once, you know
but it is time for you to go
I have a life to live, please let me try
and I truly want to keep in touch, but for now: goodbye.
