lyrics

PAIN IS THE EMPEROR
CONQUERS THE SOUL
AND MAKES IT HIS

PAIN HAS YOUR NAME BOY
POSESS MY HEART AND
MAKE IT USELESS

PAIN IS THE EMPEROR
WEARING MY LOVE LIKE A BADGE OF HONOUR
PAIN HAS YOUR HANDS BOY
SQUEEZES MY HEART AND MAKE IT WEAKER

SORROW IS THE SOLDIER
USES MY OWN BRAIN
AS A WEAPON

AND SORROW WILL CONQUER
THERE’S NO RETREAT
UNTIL THE DEFEAT

NOW LOVE FEELS JUST LIKE PAIN
I STAND HERE LIKE A GRAFFITI ON A TRAIN
HOPING TO BE WASHED AWAY BY THE RAIN

NOW LOVE FEELS LIKE A GAME
I SACRIFICED ALL OF MY THINGS
I WAIT FOR YOU TO TELL ME CHECK MATE
