Static-P - A Reason For Suffering lyrics

[Intro: Aoke & Hareka] We've had it rough since we got started (Uh-oh) And don't we all just want to thrive In a warm and loving place? We dreamed, we sang, we swore forever But now our hearts have worn We didn't ask for war [Interlude: Aoke] (This is not the end) (This is not the end) This is not the end! This is not the end! [Verse 1: Aoke & Bee] When we started up this idol group, two years ago Our songs were mocked if not ignored (And the names that they called us, oh!) We should have known that we would have our rivals (Uh-uh-oh) And, by our rivals fans [Aoke & Keiko] We were dragged through someone's spit on the floor [Pre-Chorus 1: Aoke] Sometimes it hurts so bad that I don't want to get up so [Chorus: Aoke] Build, in us, a dream That's worth great suffering That a heart might come to grow And that that has some sort of meaning Make for us a journey That's worth crying for That a heart might come to know That it is valued and adored [Bridge 1: Aoke] This is not the end This is not the end This is not the end Keep singing This is not the end Start up the second year Two members quit, right here But I don't blame them with no fans to show [Verse 2: Aoke & Keiko] Then it happened: something that we can't explain (Uwah-uh-a-ah) Offered a gig that led to fame! They were chanting our names and we were finally idolized We were voted to perform on the Top Ten Idol stage [Pre-Chorus 2: Aoke] Finally all our hard hard work started to pay off so [Chorus: Aoke] Build, in us, a dream That's worth great suffering That a heart might come to grow And that that has some sort of meaning Make for us a journey That's worth crying for That a heart might come to know That it is valued and adored [Post-Chorus: Aoke] I guess I'm trying to say that I've come to believe That this life's not meant to be easy Like there's a reason for our suffering Like there's a reason we should chase these dreams I guess I'm trying to say that I've come to believe That pain is, ultimately, there To show us value To show it's worth us being here [Bridge 2: Aoke] Now, back to the story Yeah, it gets a little dark, from here I remind you all This is not the end. This is not the end When the bomb went off, back stage We were sitting pretty far away The bomb was hidden in our baggage And the world wanted someone to blame Everyone pointed right at us But we were framed, we didn't cause their pain We lost all our loving fans And that love had turned to hate And now we're here, on our third year To give it one more shot to redeem our name Some members left and that's okay It's a pretty dark world, out there, today [Verse 3: Keiko] Every time we step into this place This school, this nightmare of hate We gotta put up with the wrongs That we didn't create I can't even count the days Where all I want to do is sleep [Keiko & Hareka] hold my pillow tight against my face [Keiko & Hareka] while I scream and weep I can't even count the times I've [Keiko & Bee] seen someone spit in my food I can't even count the times we've [Keiko & Aoke]been pushed around, and bruised [Breakdown: Hareka & Aoke] I wish it all would go away (Y'know I wish it all would go away) I wish it all would go away (Wish it all would go away) [Hareka] (So – Please.) [Chorus: Aoke & Hareka] Build, in us, a dream That's worth great suffering That a heart might come to grow And that that growth has some sort of meaning Make for us a journey That's worth crying for That a heart might come to know That it is valued and adored [Post-Chorus: Aoke] I guess I'm trying to say that I've come to believe That this life's not meant to be easy Like there's a reason for our suffering Like there's a reason we should chase these dreams I guess I'm trying to say that I've come to believe That pain is, ultimately, there To show us value To show it's worth us being here
