Steve Vai - Down Deep Into The Pain Lyrics
So naive, so innocent, thrust in a world too intenseFlesh is weak but the soul is strong, and you will bleed but youll carry onYes you need your pain, life is painI could hold your hand, but you must take your painI dont need sacrifice, I dont need adviceThis hurt surrounds me like a dissonanceAnger is power, I use it to protect myself from insanityYou gotta go down deep down into the painLet it purge your soul like flesh to a razor bladeDig down deep into the painSurrender, surrender, dig into euphoriaTime may never heal the wounds, hearts bleed hard even the sun cries moonFate is tragic just for heavens sake, the good lord giveth and taketh awaycause you need your pain, God gave us painI can hold you in my arms, but I cant take away your painI am not long for this world please save me from myself and my disciplineLashing out with tight fists in despair, my plight is running from realityChorus:You gotta go down deep down into the painLet it purge your soul like flesh to a razor bladeDig down deep into the painSurrender, surrender, dig in, dig inPut yourself down deep into the painEmbrace the bliss of pure sensationYou cant escape from the ultimate painSo let your senses drift into euphoriaBlood is thickest when love is boldBut blood runs thin when the heart grows coldSo you need your pain, we all need painWe were born into this world to feel the joy of all our pain(solo)(chorus)[spoken:]The falling will be gentle and soothingBut the awakening will be as riveting as an explosionEyes open to total darkness, body floating in encompassing tranquilityAnd then the voice camehear this voice and know that it will be with you alwaysPhantoms of opulent auras emblazed in a repulsively lush turmoilOf incomprehensible vastness, dance in a sea of timeless infinityAnd 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10Is this the voice of my god? -this is the voice of liberationMan youve got to be kidding meGo forth and rise to life riseYou will have the freedom to think and choose as you wishWhat do I choose? -you choose in the momentYour life will be shaped around your choicesAnd the fight is on, every minute of the day, every action in every wayIs every creatures expression to be one with its creatorFrom a simple prayer to a senseless murderWhere do I find you when I need you? -you will search and you will questionWorship me in your joy and curse me in your painYou will fight, kill and love in my name, but I have no nameAlways keep in your thoughts that life is goodBut do not fear death, for I am closer to you than your vry own breathAnd I love you, and I want you to know meNow beautiful life awaits you, and when I count to 3, you will awakeAnd you will remember everything Ive said1-2-3
