When I Paused to Live

When I Paused to Live

Chorus:

The pain scares more inside my mind

But when I paused to live, I found it kind

The stars I thought were far away

Were right there with me, night and day

Verse 1:

The pain in thoughts, it haunts too deep

It makes the broken soul still weep

But when I paused and let things be

I saw that life was holding me

Chorus:

The pain scares more inside my mind

But when I paused to live, I found it kind

The stars I thought were far away

Were right there with me, night and day

Verse 2:

Every day had a chance for love

A little gift from up above

But I just wrote it off as date

By the time I saw, it was too late

Chorus:

The pain scares more inside my mind

But when I paused to live, I found it kind

The stars I thought were far away

Were right there with me, night and day

Verse 3:

Everyone’s voice felt louder than mine

But trust that’s thin is just a line

And all the knots in every tie

Were lessons wearing a disguise

Final Chorus:

The pain scares more inside my mind

But when I paused to live, I found it kind

The moon I chased in dreams so high

Was always here — right in my eye
