Without Pain
  A life without pain is unimaginable
  Yet so desirable to anyone who has had their heart broken
  A life without pain doesn’t seem like enough anymore
  Because the pain doesn’t ever go away I’ve learned to live with it
  Everyone wants a life without pain
  But I’m not so sure I’d want a life without it
  Pain makes me feel alive; it reminds me of all I’ve been through
  Life might be easier without pain
  Without pain I don’t know what to do I don’t know how to react
  When someone loves me back I don’t know how to react
  When something good happens I only remember it for a second and then it’s gone
  With pain I can dwell and stay in the moment and feel exactly how I felt
  With happiness I can’t fake it I can’t go back to a moment in time to feel that way again
  So when nothing happens or after the good feelings are gone I go to my sad moments
  They make me feel; at least when I am upset I can feel something
  When I’m happy I get a buzz when I’m sad I get the full effects and sometimes a hangover
  Life without pain would be boring 
  So even if a life without pain was possible I wouldn’t want to let go of my pain
