Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

The Pain of Pain

There's a man, father of daughters

A man without a steady job

Through the years his plans are all empty

Tries to speak but his voice is hard

What could I say to that?

Courage I've never had to show

Time will come before I'm ready to face it

Breaking down all around me

Nothing I do is right

There was a man, forced to a flat land

Dreamed of returning to his home

He called to remind him of leaving

When his [?]

What could I say to that?

The courage I've never had to show

Times will come before I'm ready to face them

Breaking down all around me

Nothing I do is right
