[00:10.44]I was born inside a small town, I lost that state of mind
[00:13.34]Learned to sing inside the Lord's house, but stopped at the age of nine
[00:16.40]I forget when I get awards now the wave I had to ride
[00:19.28]The paving stones I played upon, they kept me on the grind
[00:22.05]So blame it on the pain that blessed me with the life
[00:24.90]Friends and family filled with envy when they should be filled with pride
[00:27.53]And when the world's against me is when I really come alive
[00:30.39]And everyday that Satan tempts me, I try to take it in my stride
[00:33.21]You know that I've got whisky with white lies and smoke in my lungs
[00:36.56]I think life has got to the point I know without it's no fun
[00:39.25]I need to get in the right mind and clear myself up
[00:42.06]Instead, I look in the mirror questioning what I've become
[00:44.83]I guess it's a stereotypical day for someone like me
[00:47.56]Without a nine-to-five job or an uni degree
[00:50.34]To be caught up in the trappings of the industry
[00:53.13]Show me the locked doors, I find another use for the key
[00:55.94]And you'll see
[00:56.61]I'm well aware of certain things that can destroy a man like me
[01:02.10]But with that said give me one more, higher
[01:08.42]Another one to take the sting away
[01:14.93]I am happy on my own, so here I'll stay
[01:20.33]Save your lovin' arms for a rainy day
[01:25.89]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[01:30.08]I used to think that nothing could be better than touring the world with my songs
[01:33.57]I chased the pictured perfect life, I think they painted it wrong
[01:36.25]I think that money is the root of evil and fame is hell
[01:39.11]Relationships and hearts you fixed, they break as well
[01:42.13]And ain't nobody wanna see you down in the dumps
[01:44.65]Because you're living your dream, man, this shit should be fun
[01:47.57]Please know that I'm not trying to preach like I'm Reverend Run
[01:50.19]I beg you, don't be disappointed with the man I've become
[01:52.99]Our conversations with my father on the A14
[01:55.80]Age twelve telling me I've gotta chase those dreams
[01:58.70]Now I'm playing for the people, dad, and they know me
[02:01.37]With my beat and small guitar wearing the same old jeans
[02:04.34]Wembley Stadium crowd's two-hundred-and-forty-thou'
[02:07.10]I may have grown up but I hope that Damien's proud
[02:09.90]And to the next generation, inspiration's allowed
[02:12.73]The world may be filled with hate but keep erasing it now
[02:15.40]Somehow
[02:16.07]I'm well aware of certain things that will befall a man like me
[02:21.79]But with that said give me one more, higher
[02:27.67]Another one to take the sting away
[02:34.29]Oh, I am happy on my own, so here I'll stay
[02:39.84]Save your lovin' arms for a rainy day
[02:45.41]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[02:50.91]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[02:56.40]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[03:01.21]Welcome to the new show
[03:04.12]I guess you know I've been away
[03:07.20]But where I'm heading, who knows
[03:09.83]But my heart will stay the same
[03:12.86]Welcome to the new show
[03:15.51]I guess you know I've been away
[03:18.43]But where I'm heading, who knows
[03:20.72]My pain, eraser
[03:23.96]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[03:29.72]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[03:35.46]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[03:41.11]And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
