The pain keeps hurting and I just can’t stop it
I’ve been preaching this for years behind invisible pulpit
The irony’s not lost on it’s God who had called it
Said get up off your knees cause the praying looks like begging
And nobody can hear you when your voice is just shaking
So sit down and start listening when I start talking
‘Cause you’ll never hear the words when your minds always walking
The pain keeps hurting and I just can’t stop it
Said he wouldn’t if he could cause the lessons in the learning
And you can’t stop the fire if you’re the one burning
Said that I’m the only one who can ever stop the hurting
‘Cause the knife cuts deeper when you’re the one holding
And the scars seems thicker when the skin is thinner
So get up off your knees, you never played a good sinner
Trying hard to heal for the words that weren’t meant for me
Playing on repeat in my mind for that one to see
The ones who try to break us are the ones who are broken
God knows that’s the work of the ones so misspoken
The pain stops hurting when the healing is the winner
Said follow my saints and not the sinners
Follow the saints and not those sinners…
