Melissa Etheridge
"Precious Pain"

Everybody's got a hunger no matter where they are
Everybody clings to their own fear, everybody hides some scar.

Ooo, precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain.

Everybody's got a reason to abandon their plan
How can I think of tomorrow? with my sorrow in hand.

Ooo, precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain.

Each road that I walk down reminds me of you
This whole town is haunted
There'll never be anything new.

Precious pain
Empty and cold, but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain...
