Scars of You

Speak 

Yell at me 

Tell me what you’re made of 

Explain why 

Why would you fuck with my mind? 

Admit it

How stabbing my heart felt good to you

Don’t walk away from me

Why did you walk that path to me?

Couldn’t you have gone the other way?

Say it!

Why did you lead me away from those I love?

Look at my scar named after you 

Endless thoughts, racing towards nowhere 

Coward, look at me 

These excuses are not valid anymore 

The sun won’t rise over the highway 

It’s a storm now, full of regret 

You’ve looked into my eyes 

You saw my pain 

I said don’t look away

Look at my pain 

I refuse to be in chains 

Chains of our own doing 

I long to be free 

Free of pain, betrayal, sadness

This blood from my arms 

Watch it disappear 

Because I’m free from you 

Liberated from this suffering 

I no longer accept to be captive in my pain

I refuse to seek evanescent love 

Begging my bad memories to leave my scars 

To be dragged out of my mind 

Peeled from my heart 

That way my heart can love the right way 

So it can love me and I can love it back

I feel you coming out of my scars

Like a dandelion blown with the mist

Carried to the mountain 

Where all my pain sits

For a great mountain can handle all 

Even my agony 

I kiss the ounce of you dripping from my scar

Goodbye...
