My Channel For The Pain – I wonder why I live all alone… No words from Paradise Lost hit so close to home that it feels as if it were written for me.
Track 11 off the amazing Symbol of Life, Paradise Lost really knocks it out of the park with this track.
OK, so what is a channel for pain? Well, think about it for yourself. What hurts you so much that it causes you to grow? To become more, to feel more. The More…
I think about myself in times like these. I think about the sheer amount of pain I’ve physically endured. At the time of writing, I’ve got over 330 hours of tattoo time.
It’s a powerful, painful, experience. It exercised the demons inside of me, it was my channel for the pain. It made me who I am, it gave me the fortitude to exist.
What does that mean? It means I will NEVER, EVER bow to you. I will die on my feet rather than submit on my knees. Check out Timcast IRL – Will Of The People – Original Song And Music Video.
Thank’s to Tim Pool for helping me realize that more so. If you want to listen to a cogent, intelligent human, I must insist on checking him out.
There is something coming that is far more intense, destructive. I can see the lines. I can feel it in my bones. It’s something that rattles my soul.
I know where the channel for the pain goes. It’s a horrible, disgusting, death-filled future. A harbinger of doom, like my good sister. It’s just a cluster fuck of democide.
Yes. I said democide. I am invoking that. I challenge you, tell me I am wrong. Tell me you don’t see the writing on the wall.
I see it. And it’s what pushes my channel for the pain. I hear black and it has no mercy. It’s coming. It’s coming…

” (Official Music Video).
I live all alone, I wonder why?
I live all alone, I wonder why?See me shaking never making
All my life and there is no other way
‘Til I’m old enough and hit the groundNever choose because I’m here just to lose
Besides a win would just release
And just maybe solve my minor problemsDon’t want to seek, I won’t make a demand
Because I’m taking all the things
That prevent me from knowing the truth
Don’t want to seek, I won’t make a demand
Because although my mind is breaking
My existence makes a channel for the painI live all alone, I wonder why?
I live all alone, I wonder why?See me taking never giving all my life
But there is no other way
‘Til I’m old enough and hit the groundI only lose because I never did choose
And all the loneliness that’s there
Is just the core of all my problemsDon’t want to seek, I won’t make a demand
Because I’m taking all the things
That prevent me from knowing the truth
Don’t want to seek, I won’t make a demand
Because although my mind is breaking
My existence makes a channel for the painI live all alone, I wonder why?
I live all alone, I wonder why?
