Analysis of The Pain of Love



Like a wet log it burns
Filling the vacuum, acrid smoke
Breathing becomes shallow
Heart struggles to pump vitality
Then you know, my friend
The pain of lost love

The wild fire spreading
It chars you down
Holes you up in the burning hell
Pressure build up in the veins
On the verge if letting life
Then you reckon my friend
The pain of lost love

When the tears build uup in the eyes
Hands shake
Head spins hazily
Unable to find your feet
Bang against the walls
Closing on you
Then you concede my friend
The pain of lost love

When you want to set fire
To the pulsating rain
When you desire to freeze
The burning sensation within
Raise a toast to the impending doom
Bid farewell to lifeless life
Then you feel my friend
The pain of losing love.
