The Scars Remain
V1
Somewhere within a calloused heart
burned one too many times
hides the helpless little girl
with no more tears to cry
a life spent in limbo
she moves from one thing to the next
but she finds no escape
just a long trail of regrets

CHORUS
you can run away
wish away
or rage against the pain
but there's no amount of time
that can erase the stains
and no matter what you cut away
the scars will still remain

V2
lost inside a tangled mind
she wrestles with her sin
as the demons from her past
still haunt her from within
she tries to forget the ledge
she left so long ago
but when she closes her eyes she still
sees rocky cliffs below

CHORUS

BRIDGE
from constant conflict anger grows
into something she can't control
against an unclear enemy
so she focuses it inwardly
despite her screams
and used up blades
she still can't make
it go away

CHORUS
CHORUS
