Gift of Pain Lyrics

Down on the dark streets below
Reject the phoenix and regain control
A million memories that you never had
A pathetic attempt to erase the past
My truth will burn your lies away
You gave
You gave me a gift
You gave
You gave me a gift of pain

You gave
You gave me a gift
You gave
You gave me a gift

For blessed years
I never saw your face
You disappeared
But you never changed
I've come to understand
Your weakness again
Dragged my name through
The mud in punishment for your sins
My truth will burn your lies away

You gave
You gave me a gift
You gave
You gave me a gift of pain
You gave
You gave me a gift
You gave
You gave me a gift of pain
Gift of pain
You gave me a gift of pain

I've sat alone for so long
Burning with anger,
Staring through the walls
I will rebuild
A stronger design
Regain my will
And leave you behind
b****

Solos: Skolnick, holt
You run away as far as you can
You took the best of me
And left behind a broken man

You keep on coming back
To drag me down
I'll keep on fighting
Until they put me in the ground

You gave
You gave me a gift
You gave
You gave me a gift of pain

I'll give
I'll give you a gift
I'll give
I'll give you a gift of pain

Gift of pain
Gift of pain
Gift of pain
