Pain In My Heart
Dr.House Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I lie alone
Covered with my last sheet
I'm coming home
It's over and I'll never have to repeat
I can't believe that it's already the end
I'd lost one more chance for messages to send
But it's not a big deal
If I'm believing it's not real

I can hear voices
Sad memories
I've made all my choices
In the glimmering light

Be there
Don't cry
I'm here
It's not goodbye
I'm here, and I won't disappear
Don't cry, don't sigh
I'm here, so just be there
Don't care, I'll be starring at your life
All the time
I lie, here alone
Well this is my ending, or was it so happy?
These are my endings and I couldn't let go
I'm coming home, with a bullet in my heart

I can still remember
The biggest mistake
Was it December?
When I had a promise to break
I never meant a word I said
I never meant it from my heart
I believed this to be the start
The start

I lie alone
Covered with my last sheet
I'm coming home
It's over and I'll never have to repeat

It was told like a fable
The time that has passed
When I noticed it was April
Wow was that so fast
I never want to leave
I never ever want to believe
It's coming every step
I'm decending into a darkness

I lie alone
I'm coming home
It was the last phone call
It wasn't special at all
Told you to meet me at
The bench of Sunvaile park where we sat
It was raining again
All from the stars
I'm falling again
When will I restart?

I can't believe that this is the end
I'd lost one more chance for messages to send
But it's not a big deal
If I'm believing it's not real

I'm standing I'm watching everything
I can't answer the phone still ringing
If I could reply, if I could stop making you cry
If I didn't need to say goodbye
If I never needed to hear a sigh again
I'm crying and I'm missing all that I ever had
I can't go to anyone explain how I'm sad
If I could stop, if I didn't need to suddenly drop
If I could stay at the top
No it didn't need to be the top
If only I could stay with you

I can hear voices
Sad memories
I've made all my choices
In the glimmering light

I lived a life, I dreamed a dream
I understood life harder than it seemed
I saved your life, you helped me through
It's the last word that I could ever say to you

Be there
Don't cry
I'm here
It's not goodbye
I'm here, and I won't disappear
Don't cry, don't sigh
I'm here, so just be there
Don't care, I'll be starring at your life
All the time
I lie, here alone
Well this is my ending, or was it so happy?
These are my endings and I couldn't let go
I'm coming home, with a bullet in my heart

It's not the end
It's not the end
It's not the end it's never
I'm not going to believe
It's not the last time I'm ever gonna' see you
Or any last time you can bring me through
I need your help just one more time
I'm crying and I'm missing all that I ever had
I'm leaving everything behind
I'm leaving everything that was in my mind
With a bullet in my heart, I carry on
To someday I'll meet, whether not
I believe that I'll meet and I will not repeat

I lie alone
Covered with my last sheet
I'm coming home
It's over and I'll never have to repeat
I can't believe that it's already the end
I'd lost one more chance for messages to send
But it's not a big deal
If I'm believing it's not real
No it's not real

I lie alone
Covered with my last sheet
I'm coming home
Carry me home
Carry me home

I lied upon truths and lies
Don't need to ask me why

I'll lie upon until you follow me
Paint the rest of your life

I'll lie upon my life
You will live again for me

I'm yours
Carry on
I'm yours





I'm yours

Dr. Nolan: “If that’s where you’d like to start.”
House: “I’ve had a billion things happen to me in my life, how am I supposed to know which ones are relevant?”
Dr. Nolan: “As far as I’m concerned, they’re all relevant.”
House: “Well, then. We better get moving, ‘cause this session could take fifty years.”
House: “I want to get better... whatever the hell that means.”

Park: “House hired me when no one else would.”
Adams: “He got me fired. He gave me the guts to get fired.”
Masters: “He gave me the courage to quit.”
Taub: “He made me a better parent... whether he meant to or not.”
Thirteen: “I’ll always be grateful.”

Cameron: “...but somewhere in there, he knew how to love.”
Wilson: “He was my friend.”

Wilson: “You’ll just try to find someone else and it won’t work. It shouldn’t work!”
House: “So that’s the great wisdom you’re imparting? That I’ll always be alone?”
Wilson: “There’s only one person you can count on.”

House: “I had all these doctors telling me that I should amputate and I said, “No.”
They did this very risky operation. I almost died.”
Hanna: “But you saved your leg.”
House: “I wish I hadn’t.”

Wilson: “This has never been about what you missed. This is about why you missed it. You’re terrified that you’re losing your gift...losing who you are.”

House: “You think I can fix myself?”
Cuddy: “I don’t know.”
House: “‘Cause I am the most screwed up person in the world.”

Wilson: “I have five months to live and you’re making me go through this ALONE?”

House: “Almost dying changes nothing, dying changes everything.”

House: “I’m so sorry.”

Wilson: “What happened out there was your show.”
House: “You’re scared to death of losing anyone that matters to you, so you dump the person that matters most to you.”
Wilson: “I’m not scared to death, I’m moving forward.”
House: “Because no one can take away from you what you no longer have.”

Wilson: “You’re not just a regular guy who’s getting older. You’ve changed, you’re miserable and you’re afraid to face yourself.”
House: “OF COURSE I’VE CHANGED!”

Thirteen: “You spend your whole life looking for answers.
Because you think the next answer might change something, maybe make you a little less miserable.
And you know that when you run out of questions you don’t know just run out of answers, you run out of hope.”

House: “YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW I FEEL?”
Cuddy: “Why do you need to negate everything?”

Foreman: “This wasn’t your fault!”
House: “THAT’S THE POINT! I did everything right, she died anyway.”

Taub: “You know he’s making an impossible choice, he just doesn’t want to live in pain.”
House: “LIFE IS PAIN! I wake up every morning, I’m in pain. I go to work in pain.
You know how many times I’ve wanted to just give up?
How many times I’ve thought about ending it?”

House: (screams of agony)

House: “I’m not gonna say, “I love you””
Wilson: “Thank God.”



@14reasons58

People like me know a little too much.
And maybe you know someone in your life who has the mind of a machine, like me.
So knowing is not easy.
That episode was quite right.
Its difficult.
It makes everything a lot more intricate and annoying.
You tend to get allot more fatigued, by everyday life.
But what if 'I could get a little more stupid?' , just enough to make things more manageable, where I can relate with the normal , everyday people?
Get it?



@toogeekfortoday.4660

House MD was, is and always will be my favorite medical drama.

House made me laugh.

Wilson broke my heart more than once.

Cameron left you emotional.

Chase made you wonder if what you were doing was right or wrong.

Foreman was a pain in the back but he always had a moral superiority to the rest.

Cuddy was one drama after another.

Kutner was a freak who saves lives damaging property.

Thirteen was a symbolism of what awaits us all at the end of the road.

Taub was living proof that you must always tell the truth.

Masters was joy and shyness combined with innocence.

Amber was House's breaking point.



@jinwoo78

"Dying changes everything".

Yes, it does. For those that say it doesn't, they're lying out of their teeth. This is what happened to my family last year when the doctors sat down with my family and told us that my mother's head-and-neck cancer was incurable, that she was terminal. A year ago, I was livid and pissed as hell. My dad was too. I could still vividly remember my mother trying to stay positive and optimistic about the prognosis, and it broke me to see her enter into that state of bargaining when you couldn't really accept what you were hearing and seeing with your own eyes. We all have this distant awareness embedded into the logical arenas of our minds that human lives don't last forever, and yet, it's paradoxical to see it hitting us the hardest when we are forced to face the consequences of our mortality. In two months, her physical and mental and emotional health deteriorated so rapidly to the point that she couldn't eat, sleep, drink, or even communicate with us anymore.

Dying changes everything. It will tear you apart when you realize what House's statement will mean to you. And when you do, I hope you don't take the people in your life for granted. I was blessed with a loving, kind, patient, beautiful, and selfless mother. She battled cancer since 2016 and passed away in December of last year. I will always be blessed to have the memories I have of her and I will forever cherish her memory and do utmost best to live my life in a way that honors her.

Dying will change everything in your life. I seriously hope you're not taking your life, or any of your loved ones' times in this life, for granted. I don't know what walk of life you come from, and I'm not here to judge you or what has happened to you. But at some point in your life, think of these words and make sure you heed House's statement. I've been a long time fan of House MD since the early 2000s (and I remember growing up with it because my mother and father used to watch this together on weeknights). But it took my mother dying of cancer to fully realize the meaning and the impact of these words.

Life is short. It is a cliche at this point. But it doesn't mean it's any less true. Life is really short and fear will not be any bigger than you make it to be. It can't be bigger than you. So whatever it is that dream, life, goal you want? Run like the tiger and get after it. Are there still things you haven't said yet to that one you love? Get up off your ass and say it, hug them close and let them know how grateful you are that they exist, breathing the same air you breathe right now. Is there someone you've wanted to reconnect with and make peace with for years or decades now? Pick up the phone and call them, talk to them, and it maybe awkward dancing around each other, but be open to where it leads. Or is there someone you dearly loved that you just lost recently? Take your time. Cry, shout, scream, pour your heart and grief and sorrow into the earth. Take your time and let yourself grieve. Take your time to heal and let it do the rest. But eventually, you will have to get up at some point and pick up the shards of your heart and piece them together again. Don't let the shards kill your humanity, don't let it numb you. Don't do it, because I did and I'm living with the consequences of that.

Life is pain, but it doesn't mean you get to be passive and refuse to do anything about it.

EDIT (12/5/2022): It will be 3 years in December 11. It feels like yesterday. I just broke down today. My mom was there for the first 20 years of my life. Now I really will spend the remaining 60+ years without her. I forgot the last time I heard her voice. I'm slowly forgetting the small moments we shared. I can't handle this...



@sarizonana

the best tv series of all time with the best tv character ever.

house is a character that makes you laugh, get angry, live him and hate him at the same time.

and what an amazing character development it started with House very well in control despite his dependence to Vicodin to latter completely loose control and become an addict.

you see a big transformation of House.

from season 1-4 he was a flawed hero but a hero nonthless who could be rude and very temperamental but always did the right thing and within his madness he had his own boundaries.

after Kunter's death he turned into a real addict who's limits were blurred each time a little more.

early seasons house would have never let Chase get stabbed, or chase would have never had incident in his bachelor party with the strawberries.



@dragutintheslav-veliki790

The "Life is pain." part had hit in the feels like nothing else
So many times I wake up pondering if today is the day I end it all.
My body doesn't work the way it should, and people keep telling me that every day
I have once thought Hell is a place where you burn forever for your sins
Turns out, real Hell is when you wake up and have to deal with the same stuff each day
Yes, I know, my body is falling apart
Yes, I did hear your advice, I hear it every day, at least 50 times...
Yes, the physical pain is causing me mental pain
Yes, I have tried every method
And no, I will not try it again just because you have said
So please, don't try to "help"
It just makes it worse
Let me live my life until something fails
Be it either my body or my mind

As for the rest of you, take care
Live life to the fullest, trust me, I wish I could have
