My first song for FAWM, a skirmish song written on Feb 2. 2013, and recorded in one take with a very loud furnace in the background.
lyrics
Sometimes life truly hurts
but it's only what you've got
sometimes life is hard to take
a battle to be fought
that's the journey
wherever you're bound
welcome the pain
and beat its ass down
it's the world that you've found
and you don't get to trade it
and as day follows day
you're not quite sure that you made it
that's the bargain
and here's your pound
welcome the pain
and beat its ass down
and when you lie in bed
in the middle of the long night
if something's not aching
you didn't do it right
because the pain only shows
that when you met with resistance
you didn't stop, you cracked the wall
you demonstrated your existence
and you left your mark
all around
you welcomed the pain
and you beat its ass down
