Invisible Scar
Your fingerprints cover skin
I have soaked up all your sin
Woke up on the floor again
Can't remember where it began
Mister sleep eludes me still
I can't find to defend my will
My head is void of wondrous dreams
Escape is what sees the sunbeams.
Humility is all I know
And yet you say there is more to show
You say you'll teach me how to cope
You are the reason I don't dare to hope.
Upon my skin, I wear your anger
Upon my head, a crown of danger
With the promise of tomorrow
Your forgiveness I seek to borrow.
And still, though time has changed me
Your mistakes are all I see
People close and people far
Fear the girl with the invisible scar.
