Day Three: Pain Lyrics - The Human Equation - Ayreon

[Agony] 

I am pain 

I am real, I'm not a dream 

I'm the chain around your neck as you scream 

Surrender now 

You can't beat death at his ruthless game 

Make your bow 

Hang your head in shame 

[Me] I can't believe there is no way out... 

[Agony] You'll find you are wrong 

[Me] You fill me with doubt... 

[Agony] You were never that strong 

[Agony] 

I am pain 

I am the wound that never heals 

It's all in vain 

No compromise, no deals... 

[Me] I can't believe this is the end 

[Agony] It's written in stone 

[Me] Where are my friends? 

[Agony] You have always been lying! 

[Rage] 

(Pain!) We lead 

We hide as the pain leaves the rage inside 

(Motion personified alpha) 

Being here, welcomed by... a sane mind 

A travelled lie 

[Agony] 

I am pain 

I am the end, I am your wraith 

Nothing remains 

I'm the loss of hope and faith 

[Me] I can't believe there is no way out... 

[Agony] You'll I find you are wrong 

[Me] You fill me with doubt... 

[Agony] You were never that strong 

[Rage] 

We lead, we hide as the pain leaves the rage inside 

(Motion personified alpha) 

Being here, welcomed by...a sane mind 

A travelled lie 

All the time, I had waited with rage 

All the time, I was promised my salvation 

[Love] 

I can't accept this, we will find a way 

Out of this cesspool of doom and dismay 

Beyond this dejection there's beauty and grace 

A glorious future we long to embrace 

[Rage] 

(Pain!) All the time, I have waited with rage 

(Motion personified alpha) 

All the time, I was promised my salvation
