Passion Born of Pain
You came down to the door
Only half way dressed
A sickening sweet aroma
The scent of cheap cologne
You really didn't need to say you had a guest
Only a fool would not have known
That you weren't alone
[bridge]
The little girl in me
Ran screaming into the dark
In an instant I knew
My innocence was gone
The chill in the night
Set fire to my vein
In the arms of another man
In passion born of pain
{Chorus}
I cried that night
But I didn't shed any tears
I spent the night
In passion born of pain
I died inside
It hurt too much to cry
I kissed my tears away
In passion born of pain
---
In the morning I awoke
Feeling raped of my soul
An overwhelming sense, an indubitable shame
The pain I went through you'll never really know
There's no one but myself to blame
But I'll never be the same
[bridge repeat]
{Chorus repeat}
