Sarantos Starts Off The New Year With A Pretty Rad Rock Music Video for "Pain Of The Past"

A car junk yard? Yes, this is the perfect setting for Sarantos new music video for the song Pain Of The Past. As the past simultaneously defines and haunts us this seems like the ideal backdrop for a rock video, doesn't it? This music video casts Sarantos as someone trying hard to escape his past but always pulled back into it. No matter how far he tries to run away, ultimately there is no escape. Driving endlessly, there is always a return to the reality of an empty fragmented existence. A dead end of street is all that awaits outside the junk yard which foreshadows the past.

"This is a powerful rock song about the past" says Sarantos. "This is about someone who keeps remembering the moments gone by. They remember mistakes of the past. The pain is palpable. Why does the past never goes away? Why is the past here to stay? The past is a powerful vacuum and not easy to forget or escape. It's always there and a daily reminder of our failures and imperfections. But that's ok. They too are a part of us. They made us into what we are and we would not be here today without them. Accept the faults of your past and live the present."
 
Lyrics:

Pain of the Past

Intro

The past is on my mind tonight

Verse 1

Every year, that goes by
Time makes it a little bit easier
But even as, I wonder why
The memories won’t go away

Chorus 1

My mind ponders 
The moments gone by
The pain of the past
I remember the reason why

I live without your kiss
I can’t live like this
The pain of the past, haunts me
Haunts me

Verse 2

Why must, the past live on
I buried it so deeply
Yet it still, feels so strong
And my mind won’t forget

Chorus 2

My mind ponders 
The moments gone by
The pain of the past
I remember the reason why

I live without your kiss
I can’t live like this
The pain of the past, haunts me
Haunts me

Solo

The past never goes away
The past is always here to stay

The pain of the past
Seems like it will always last

The past never goes away
The past is always here to stay

The pain of the past
Seems like it will always last

Verse 3

I thought, I came to terms
Seemed like I finally moved on
But I still, can’t find the words
To help me live freely again

Chorus 3

My mind ponders 
The moments gone by
The pain of the past
I remember the reason why

I live without your kiss
I can’t live like this
The pain of the past, haunts me
Haunts me

Verse 4

Every year, that goes by
Time makes it a little bit easier
But even as, I wonder why
The memories won’t go away

Ending Fade Out

Why can’t love forgive?
The sins of the past

Why can’t love forgive?
The sins of the past

Why can’t love forgive?
The sins of the past

Why can’t love forgive?
The sins of the past…
