Something For the Pain

Happiness, it's been no friend to me

But forever after ain't what it's all cracked up to be

Yeah, I had a taste, you were my fantasy

But I almost lost my faith when I hit reality

I don't need no guru to tell me what to do

When you're feelin' like a headline on yesterday's news

Come on, come on, come on

Give me something for the pain

Give me something for the blues

Give me something for the pain when I feel I'm danglin'

On a hang-man's noose

Give me shelter from the rain

Give me something I can use

To get me through the night, make me feel alright

Something like you

Come on, come on, come on

Loneliness has found a home in me

My suitcase and guitar are my only family

I've tried to need someone like they needed me

Well, I opened up my heart, but all I did was bleed

I don't need no lover just to get screwed, oh yeah

They don't make no bandage that's goin' to cover my bruise

Come on, come on, come on

Give me something for the pain

Give me something for the blues

Give me something for the pain when I feel I'm danglin'

On a hang-man's noose

Give me shelter from the rain

Give me something I can use

To get me through the night, make me feel alright

Something like you

Come on, come on, come on

Pull me under, through my veins to a place where I feel no pain

Help, I'm falling

Be the pillow under my head, cover me when I'm in your bed

Night is calling

Take me higher than I've ever been, take me down and back again

Feels like I'm flying

Come to me, be my disguise, open your coat, let me crawl inside

Christ, I'm dying

Come on, come on, come on

Come on, come on, come on

Give me something for the pain

Give me something for the blues

Give me something for the pain when I feel I'm danglin'

On a hang-man's noose

Give me shelter from the rain

Give me something I can use

To get me through the night, make me feel alright

Something like you

Give me something for the pain

Give me something for the blues

Give me something for the pain when I feel I'm danglin'

On a hang-man's noose

Give me shelter from the rain

Give me something I can use

To get me through the night, make me feel alright

Something like you

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Give me, give me something for the pain

Give me, give me something for the blues, oh yeah

Give me, why don't you give me something for the pain, baby?

Give me
