You show your face in different ways
Time and again, with a different face
Making yourself known with a hidden agenda
When I hit the curb and bend my fender

But no matter my dents and no matter the place
You're there to remind me that life shows no grace
You're there to let me know I got hurt
Not only on one side; even my heart

When you're physical I can take it
It's fine when I can touch what's hurt
But you come in ways I don't like
And in full force, you're never curt

Someone once said that you're necessary
And I can see what they meant
But when you're in my heart, I can't get you out
No matter how much time spent

That's why I'm here alone in a corner
Wishing that the red was from a pie
I hoped by this time I'd be like little Jack Horner
Saying, “What a good boy am I”

So here's to you, the one I've befriended
The constant reminder that I'm still alive
The reason has long since been forgotten
But you're still around, so I still survive

I don't know your name
And I don't know your face
Trying to lose you is all but vain
So I guess I'll just call you…
Pain
