I wish I could take your pain
And make it disappear without a trace
And give you a world where you can live forever
In the care of a warm and protecting embrace
No tears of sorrow would fill your eyes
No worry or frustration would knock at your door
Fear would never find a home in your heart
No rejection or betrayal you would face anymore
But this perfect world does not exist
At times, our hearts are filled with sorrow
We can hide in the corner and wish the world away
Or find the courage to face tomorrow
Part of being human is feeling pain
It is through pain that we learn the joy of being alive
We dig deep within ourselves to find our strength
And our strength becomes our tool to survive
