Speed of Pain

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My friend Manny would always say "I only learn anything at the speed of pain" How looking back, he had no regrets No doubt they're still some hard lessons, but what I think he meant [Chorus] Not 'til all is lost Is there something to be gained From the lessons learned At the speed of pain [Verse 2] Let the hard rain fall, let the cold winds blow Somewhere between where I'm standing and where I wanna go My best thinking is all I've ever known Now I'm left here looking back on that long and winding road [Chorus] Where after all is lost There's still something to be gained From the lessons learned At the speed of pain [Bridge] All the angels, all the saints Cannot help you now You think you know yourself You think you know your truth 'Til it breaks you down [Chorus] But not 'til all is lost Is there something to be gained From the lessons learned At the speed of pain [Bridge] When all the will power in the universe Still won't get you through As good a time as any To find your version of God Just as long as it ain't you [Chorus] After all is lost Is there something to be gained From the lessons learned At the speed of pain? From the lessons learned At the speed of pain? [Outro] Ooh, hoo The speed of pain No, no, no Speed of pain
