Pain From Pleasure Lyrics

  Send "Pain And Pleasure" Ringtone to your Cell  

And so my story winds on down toward an ending that's been found to come

whenever all is said and done. I've lived my life and taken chances and if

some were strange by standards that were less important than my needs,

then I guess I could be crooked, evil, bent and twisted, looking down upon

the strings I tried to pull. But I see the strings extending up and down

and never ending as we dance around our selves and jerk  to all the tunes

that only  we hear and the voices only we fear each inside an island all

alone. But the contact that we do make, as we give and take abuse, stays

and its value only multiplies. Yes I'm alone, but not forgotten, for each

comes and sees me often, sitting on a seat beside my bed, and we laugh and

reminisce about a life that once was bliss before an act of passion made

us part. Of course they'll always be together, but their bond is made of

leather not the flesh and blood it used to be. They're still full of life

and healing, but it has a different feeling and only for the few that seek

their sort of pain and pleasure when they merge and give into insistent

urgency that lives for seconds at a time. For pain and pleasure are the

twins that slightly out of focus spin around us till we finally understand

that everything that gives us pleasure also gives us pain to measure it

by, and I also realize...that all our lives we love illusion, neatly

caught between confusion and the need to know we are alive.
