Take it all Away

I've suffered through what seems like my own personal hell, filled with all sorts of pain.

In a way I've gotten used to it, even though it still hurts day after day.

I've seen and experienced what I deem as true pain,

But when I see others hurt, or going through their pain,

I can't help but want to take it all away.


Even if that means I take on another wave of pain,

Filled with memories and things most people can't sustain.

Even if it was all in vain,

I'd still do it for them,

Because I can't stand to see someone else going through pain.


When I see other people going through pain,

It causes me pain too.

And I can't but beat myself up each time I see this,

Because I just want to find some way I can help you.

But each time I try to help,

I feel like I never say enough,

And I feel like I never do enough,

Because I know the pain still haunts you.


I would do anything to take it all away.

They say Jesus died for our sins,

Well let me be the one to die for all our pain.

Not so I can be the next prophet,

Not because I want people to worship my name.

Honestly if I was erased from history, I'd be fine with that,

As long as I take away everyone's pain.
