For My Pain... (often abbreviated “FMP...” or just “FMP”) was a gothic metal supergroup from Oulu, Finland, featuring members from Embraze, Eternal Tears of Sorrow, Nightwish, Charon and Reflexion. The band released their successful debut album “Fallen” in 2003, but has since not released a new full-length album.
The idea of For My Pain... started in 1999, when Altti Veteläinen (bass) and Petri Sankala (drums), both from Eternal Tears of Sorrow, wanted to start a new project. They asked two old friends, Tuomas Holopainen (keyboards, Nightwish) and Lauri Tuohimaa (guitars, Charon and Embraze), to join. Everyone was interested in the project, but as everyone was too busy, the project was postponed to the future.
A few years later the idea came up again, this time with a better timing since both Eternal Tears of Sorrow and Nightwish were having breaks. Two new members were asked to join, Olli-Pekka Törrö (guitars, Eternal Tears of Sorrow) and Juha Kylmänen (vocals, Reflexion), and the band started recording their debut album in 2001.
Everything she tries for the sake of that little boy
Gives all her love, every single piece of her heart
Don't lose your head, don't lose your faith or you'll end up dead
You're one of a kind, don't drown yourself into the crowd
Oh, my precious sister, it's you who I adore,
In spite of those sleepless nights you still keep carrying on
With your life and with you soul (With your life and with you soul)
The faster beats your heart the more you're gone
With your life and with you soul (With your life and with you soul)
The faster beats your heart the more you're lost
I know it hurts bad, to give everything and still end up sad
Twisted fact of life, every single day is another fight
Oh, my precious sister, it's you who I adore,
In spite of those sleepless nights you still keep carrying on
With your life and with you soul (With your life and with you soul)
The faster beats your heart the more you're gone
With your life and with you soul (With your life and with you soul)
The faster beats your heart the more you're lost
Too sad to feel anything, these scars will never heal, or so it feels...
Oh, A little child only hope in here, but it takes more than I can give
Sadness set me free
With your life and with you soul (With your life and with you soul)
The faster beats your heart the more you're lost
With your life and with you soul (With your life and with you soul)
The faster beats your heart the more you're gone
