The Pain Stayed

作词 : Ricky Alone

作曲 : Ricky Alone

I thought it would fade

I thought it would leave

But I stay behind

Like a ghost I can't grieve

I smiled through mornings

I laughed through the day

But quiet moments took it away

The wound didn't vanish

The scar didn't heal

I felt it linger

Every touch every feel

I try to move

I try to forget

But the ache reminded in silhouette

The pain stayed

When love left

It whispered in shadows

It lingered bereft

The pain stayed even through time

A quiet reminder that some hearts can align

I reach for closure

I reach for peace

I built new walls,but they don't release

Some love leaves marks your cant erase

Some sorrow sets in your quiet space

I let it be,i let it,i let it stay

Because some hurt won't go away

The pain stayed even when I smiled

Even when I tried to walk another mile

The pain stayed so deep and true

A silent companion through all I do

Maybe it's mercy,maybe it's fate

Someone's lessons that love can negate

I carry it gently,i carry it near

The pain stayed and I learned to hear

The pain stayed

In quite corners

And soft echoes

In stolen hours of pain stay not gone,not gone

But part of me all along

I thought it would fade

I thought it would leave

But it stayed behind

And taught me to grieve
