Tear By Tear Lyrics

We all know sadness,
And I feel your pain.
Well, everybody knows a little loneliness sometimes
'Cause we're all the same.
We all have sorrow.
We all have shame.
Everybody feels a bitter emptiness sometimes
Now what ya gonna do about that?

There's a way to keep going, step by step.
Try to fix what's been broken, brick by brick.
While your life will keep coming, year after year.
You drain the pain, tear by tear.
You drain away the pain, tear by tear.

Take a look around you,
Every face that you see.
Well everybody gets a little paralyzed sometimes,
The epidemic of our insanity.

There's a way to keep going, step by step.
Try to fix what's been broken, brick by brick.
While your life will keep coming, year after year.
Drain the pain, tear by tear.
Drain away the pain, tear by tear.

And the mother, she waits cause her teenager's late
'Til the knock on the door, he says "Ma'am, I am so sorry."
And soldiers come home one leg less than they've gone with.
We all walk around like there's just nothing wrong with it.
The doctor he cries 'cause his last patient died
Did I mention before he was a father of five?
And the waitress is home, well, she can't pay her loan.
She's lost everything, everything, has nowhere to go.
And the fat kid at school couldn't take anymore,
Of the taunts and the names and the ugliest words.
No one even stopped to notice they went on with their day
'Til he pulled out a gun, and blew himself away.

There's a way to keep going, step by step.
Try to fix what's been broken, brick by brick.

You can drain off the pain
Tear by tear
Tear by tear
