The Pain of Pain Yo La Tengo

[Verse]
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

[Chorus]
Time will come before I'm ready to face it
Breaking down all around me
Nothing I do is right

[Verse]
There's a man forced to a flat land
Dreams of returning to his home
He called to remind him of leaving
[?] reaching backward home
What could I say to that?
The courage I've never had to show

[Chorus]
Times will comе before I'm ready to facе them
Breaking down all around me
Nothing I do is right
