about

An album highlight is the powerful, dramatic Stop the Pain, boasting an impassioned vocal performance from Kilbank, who, unlike the shared lead vocal duties of Travelers, is at the mic for all of Fire on the Horizon’s vocal tracks (bar Just Let Go, on which the duo harmonize). Kilbank is referring to physical pain or mental anguish. Written from both a personal perspective and on behalf of us all. The overall effect is highly emotive.

lyrics

It comes - It goes - How can I stop it if it ebbs and flows?
It lives - It breathes - How can I kill it when I am on my knees?
It lurks - It sneaks - Trying to fight it turns the days to weeks!
It hits - It soars - Trying to beat it is slamming all the doors!

Stop the pain! Stop the pain! Stop the pain and start the healing.
Stop the pain! Stop the pain! Stop the pain and start the feeling good.

Too many people live with pain and sorrow - What’s up with that?
We all dream that we’ll be free tomorrow - What’s wrong with that?

I run - I hide - How can I trick it when it starts inside?
I smile - I laugh - Trying to mock it when it’s my better half!

Stop the pain! Stop the pain! Stop the pain and start the healing.
Stop the pain! Stop the pain! Stop the pain and start the feeling good.

Too many people live with pain and sorrow - What’s up with that?
We all dream that we’ll be free tomorrow - What’s wrong with that?

Stop the pain! Stop the pain! Stop the pain and start the healing.
Stop the pain! (Before I) go insane! Stop the pain and start the feeling good.
