*Only Pain* *Verse 1* Since day one you try your best To get what you need the most The solution is you Becoming a god *We begin a process starting at birth where we strive to become our vision of a successful person. What we need the most is to achieve that goal but the only way to do so is to be better than we are capable of being (becoming a god).* *Chorus* Only pain, all in vain *Verse 2* The day you get to the point All illusions are lost The problem is you Becoming so cold Just wanted to be good Just wanted to be gold Just wanted to be god Just wanted to be *By the time we realize that we will never become this perfect version of ourselves that we have striven for since birth, we have compromised so much and become so jaded by failures that the solution (becoming a god) has created the problem (becoming so cold).* *When you’re young you just want to be a good person, doing right by your family and those you respect.* *As we grow up, some of us move on to wanting more, usually starting with money (gold).* *When money isn’t enough, we turn to power (being god).* *For the protagonist, the pursuit of money and power leave them feeling empty and now they strive to just be (themselves), such that they might eventually find happiness.* *Chorus* Only pain, all in vain *Bridge* Take all, fear none Wake up, go strong Only pain *Verse 3* I'm the lamb who was slain It's just another offering I reclaim the might and power Cast away long before dawn In a cage left to rot Creature fierce, tamed, is dying Lost the feel for all I've loved It's too strong, I'm going down *Outro* Down, down, down, down

*Only Pain*
*Verse 1*
Since day one you try your best
To get what you need the most
The solution is you
Becoming a god
*We begin a process starting at birth where we strive to become our vision of a successful person. What we need the most is to achieve that goal but the only way to do so is to be better than we are capable of being (becoming a god).*
*Chorus*
Only pain, all in vain
*Verse 2*
The day you get to the point
All illusions are lost
The problem is you
Becoming so cold
Just wanted to be good
Just wanted to be gold
Just wanted to be god
Just wanted to be
*By the time we realize that we will never become this perfect version of ourselves that we have striven for since birth, we have compromised so much and become so jaded by failures that the solution (becoming a god) has created the problem (becoming so cold).*
*When you’re young you just want to be a good person, doing right by your family and those you respect.*
*As we grow up, some of us move on to wanting more, usually starting with money (gold).*
*When money isn’t enough, we turn to power (being god).*
*For the protagonist, the pursuit of money and power leave them feeling empty and now they strive to just be (themselves), such that they might eventually find happiness.*
*Chorus*
Only pain, all in vain
*Bridge*
Take all, fear none
Wake up, go strong
Only pain
*Verse 3*
I'm the lamb who was slain
It's just another offering
I reclaim the might and power
Cast away long before dawn
In a cage left to rot
Creature fierce, tamed, is dying
Lost the feel for all I've loved
It's too strong, I'm going down
*Outro*
Down, down, down, down
Am I the only one who translates "Pain" to "Bread?" Yes, it's only bread!
