Fading Scars
The cuts and scars on this body
Are the remnants of hate from somebody.
~
The blood running down, soaking everything.
Showing the ones who love you your pain.
~
As the blood dries,
Those around you see you slowly die inside.
~
You hope to find new light
But it turns to be a hell of a fight
~
One day someone comes along
And they save you with a song.
~
They show you the best of life,
They keep you from the knife
~
Their love is strong
So you can keep moving along
~
You are no longer alone,
Both your names carved in stone
~
These scars are forever gone
You will forever be a song
~
Those who abused you will see
~
That the hurt they caused was never meant to be
~
~
Your soul will fly like a bird
It won't be lost in the dirt
~
Your negative scars have faded
Positive scars will now be created
~
As long as you stay strong
You can keep moving along
~
Over time they will fade
But for now let's be safe
~
When two souls become one
They will sing in unison
~
Their voices sweet and calm
As they carry out their song
~
Let them in so they can ease your pain
While you sit helpless in the rain
~
They will warm you from the inside out
As you find your way out
