Everyone is an author
With something to say
Everyones got a picture to paint
The story will turn and fold
Or so I've been told
It's got 'best-seller' written
All over it

All the pain you've been through will be the making of you
Nobody knows the trouble you've seen
Nobody really comes close
But you're over it now, you can boast.
Each man has been in his owners truth
Troubles when they paytronize you
Ships are brand new, you'll get around to it soon
All the pain you've been through, will be the making of you.
Tear the heart in two, it'll be the making of you

If I threw my pen into the sea
If I threw my pen into the sea
If I threw my pen into the sea
I know there'll be someone to write after me

Will be the making of you
All the pain you've been through
Will be the making of you
All the pain you've been through
Will be the making of you
All the pain you've been through
