Photo credit: Heather W., No., Brunswick, NJI'm pacing back and forth, I don't know what to do
'Cause I'm so afraid to be a little more alive
Draggin' my feet to make a line in the sand
Gotta decide which side I wanna jump to
A wall between the two and I lost who I am
And you see everything I tried so hard to hide
One set of footsteps and I know I'm alone
And I'm sure that this is all a dream

I'm afraid to let this go, but I can't stop my mind
In the end we both know scars don't lie
And I'm trying to find a reason to change
But a broken heart will never be the same
When it's walked all over by, when it's walked all over by
It really doesn't matter,
'Cause you walked all over me, you walked all over me

I'm falling apart like the London Bridge, watch out
'Cause it never felt so good to fall apart again
One thing's above the other to long divide
And I'm not sure if I'm ahead tonight
It's sincerity without speaking what's on my mind
And it's shining a light on this darkened thought
I hear one set of footsteps and I know I'm alone
And I'm sure that this is all a dream

I'm afraid to let this go, but I can't stop my mind
In the end we both know scars don't lie
And I'm trying to find a reason to change
But a broken heart will never be the same
When it's walked all over by, when it's walked all over by
It really doesn't matter,
'Cause you walked all over me, you walked all over me

I'm trying to hold on but there's nothing to hold
Falling down never helped me stand until now
It's time for me to do the walking
And leave my footprints for you
I'm gonna walk right by, I'm gonna walk right by you

I'm afraid to let this go, but I can't stop my mind
In the end we both know scars don't lie
And I'm trying to find a reason to change
But a broken heart will never be the same
When it's walked all over by, when it's walked all over by
It really doesn't matter,
'Cause you walked all over me, you walked all over me

I'm gonna walk right by you
'Cause you walked all over me
And in the end, we both know
Scars don't lie

There's few things in life that don't lie. Scars are one of them.
