Erasing The Pain

It only hurts if you let it

You won't make a martyr out of me

Yeah

I tried to paint a family portrait

Black and white, full of lies

And now your love is blind

I'm erasing the pain

No, I'm not going out that way

Now starting to change

Cause you know I'll be okay

I'm finding a way

I'm not gonna make the same mistakes

I'm erasing the pain

Erasing the pain

I tried to bury my emotions

I did for you against my will

Yeah

My pride in you now rendered hopeless

Could have been anything, anything, everything

I'm erasing the pain

No, I'm not going out that way

Now starting to change

Cause you know I'll be okay

I'm finding a way

I'm not gonna make the same mistakes

I'm erasing the pain

Erasing the pain

Erasing the pain

Erasing the pain

I'll make my amends with my brother

I hated my father 'cause he hated my mother

Holding this anger is crazy

I gotta be honest, this what you all made me

Made it on my own like a rolling stone

Looking back now that house just wasn't a home

I still got skeletons in my closet

All these years I had to contain

The burden of my ashes

Take it away, erase this pain

I'm erasing the pain

No, I'm not going out that way

Now starting to change

Cause you know I'll be okay

I'm finding a way

Not gonna make the same mistakes

I'm erasing the pain

Erasing the pain

Erasing the pain

No, I'm not going out that way

Now starting to change

Cause you know I'll be okay

I'm finding a way

Not gonna make the same mistakes

I'm erasing the pain

Erasing the pain
