Lyrics Jon Oliva's Pain

Jon Oliva's Pain

Stories

Stories told through your life

So many meanings held inside

There for you to see

Beyond the doors of broken dreams

Are they real or fantasy

You may never know

Tales on your TV... in papers, magazines

All you see is pain, to spike right through your brain

Stories, Stories, Stories...

Now inside this living hell

The fires burn... the violence swells

Is it destiny

Time to face judgment day

On your knees, time to pray

To the lord above

Sure he's heard the lies

The twisted truths... the cries

They fall on his deaf ear

His punishment we fear

Stories, stories... They will somehow find you

Stories, stories... There to remind you

Stories, stories... Beware which ones you follow

Stories, stories... Here today, gone tomorrow

Stories, stories... True-false, we always listen

Stories, stories... They truly are unforgiven
