Pain

Pain is Disc 2, Track 18 on the Xenosaga Original Soundtrack, Disc 1, Track 17 on the album, and Track 1 on the Kokoro / Joanne Hogg Theme from "Xenosaga Episode I" album. It was also included as track 4 on the album Colours of Light (a compilation of Mitsuda's vocal works).

It plays in the cutscene where the party escapes Proto Merkabah as KOS-MOS causes it to break apart from the inside.

Lyrics
First we touch, and we hurt each other Then we tear our hearts apart We are too close and I can feel the pain Fill my empty heart

Is this pain too much for me? Can I stay the same? When this pain consumes my heart Will I be able to hold on to my soul?

Kindness is something I don't want or need The sunshine would just dissolve me into light Give me a pain as pleasing as your sigh So I can feel you all the day and night And keep me from fading away

Even when we behold each other Somehow our eyes do not meet And when you hold me in your strong embrace Still I feel no heat

But it gives me such delight To feel you closer now I know I am true to myself Though it cuts deep into my heart somehow

Kindness is something I don't want or need The sunshine would just dissolve me into light Give me a pain as pleasing as your sigh So I can feel you all the day and night And keep me from fading away

Kindness is something I don't want or need The sunshine would just dissolve me into light Give me a pain as pleasing as your sigh So I can feel you all the day and night And keep me from fading away
