Pain Is Power

I drink in misery and spit it back in your face
I breathe in suffering and exhale mace
Emerge from the fire, undevoured
I am the storm from which you cower
Pain is power
Pain is pure
Pain is power
I’ve been stranded in the rain, neck-deep in muck
My skin blistered by the blaze, beaten into dust
Existence is suffering
I’ve gone to war with a chainsaw and broken its teeth
I’ve given up my life, broken body and dreams
Emerge from the fire, undevoured
I am the storm from which you cower
Pain is power, pain is power
Pain is pure
Pain is power
Outsider, Pariah
Become my fucking armor
Throw your stones at me
My bones will not break
So step up and try it
Or stand back, stay quiet
It’s never getting better
This hurt will last forever
Emerge from the fire, undevoured
I am the storm from which you cower
Pain is power
So keep fucking staring
I am the beast you made me
It’s never getting better
This hurt will last forever
