[Intro]
I've seen the end, there's no below
Pain is all we know

[Verse 1]
Maybe we're buried alive
The roots become our bones
We seek the meaning of life
Hoping it makes us whole (It makes us)
But when we're buried alive
Dirt will become our home

As we are now
As we will be

[Chorus]
Pain is all we ever know
We're all born to die alone
Tempt me under, I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know

[Verse 2]
The more we seek to ascend
The less we seem to know
The more we lie to pretend
Words are perpetual (Perpetual)
It all repeats in the end
Until we lose control
[Chorus]
Pain is all we ever know
We're all born to die alone
Tempt me under, I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know

[Bridge]
Repeat
All of the sadness
Repeat
All of the maddening things that always keep us visceral

I know you kids are growing old
It's not the truth that we've been told
Destined to reap what we have sewn
Our souls rewind and echo

Rewind and echo

As we are now
As we will be

[Chorus]
Pain is all we ever know
We're all born to die alone
Tempt me under, I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know
There's no sanctum paved in gold
Only silence carved in stone
Tempt me under, I don't want to suffer
Pain is all we ever know
