Pleasure in the Pain

[Verse 1]

I've tried but I just can't explain it

This crazy kind of therapy

I wouldn't call it an addiction

But I'd say it's something that I need

I'd never swear it on the Bible

But I'd swear there's sanctity in sin

So I drop the needle on the vinyl

Welcome misery on in

[Chorus]

'Cause just like a flower needs the sunshine

Sometimes the flower needs the rain

Right now I need a Whitley song, I wanna cry and sing along

And take a ride on that lonesome train

Yeah, tonight I'm findin' pleasure in the pain

[Verse 2]

I got lots of friends who love me

Everything a man could want

But now and thеn the dark side of me

Could lеt 'em in, but it don't

'Cause I don't need no one to help me

I can hurt all by myself

Fill my glass with some old memory

And enjoy my little slice of hell

[Chorus]

'Cause just like a flower needs the sunshine

Sometimes the flower needs the rain

Right now I need a Haggard song, I wanna cry and sing along

And take a ride on that lonesome train

Yeah, tonight I'm findin' pleasure in the pain

[Outro]

I'll play an old Hank Williams song and let the demons sing along

I'll be alright upon that lonesome midnight train

Yeah, tonight I'm findin' pleasure in the pain

Yeah, tonight I'm findin' pleasure in the pain
