For those who go through heart break,
You have not seen real pain,
For if your father was a drunk,
And your mother clinically insane,
you would forget that broken love,
for that would be true pain.

For those who are betrayed,
By friends who are not real,
think of that sad homeless boy,
so poor that he must steal,
you would forget that betrayal,
for that would be true pain.

For the couple that falls apart,
for love was just to weak,
this woman lost her husband in war,
she's in to much shock to speak,
your love will grow, with time you know,
but for her, that is true pain.
