Damn the truth, n damn these lies Damn that look behind your eyes Damn this day, damn this night Goddamn this losing fight
Cos there ain’t no boat, there ain’t no train To take us back the way we came Ain’t no shelter from this hard rain The cure for the pain is the pain The cure for the pain is the pain
It’s not like you think it’s gonna be Not like the movies that you see Ain’t no soaring violins Just machines and medicine
So bless these pills, n bless these sheets Bless this food that you can’t eat Bless the damned who walk these halls God have mercy on us all
Cos there ain’t no drug, there ain’t no cure To make it like it was before Ain’t no shelter from this hard rain The cure for the pain is the pain The cure for the pain is the pain
Gretchen Peters, (2000), an amazing songwriter and singer!
