Beautiful Scars
(V1)
Little Heart
Don't you die
You were the only light
that kept my soul alive
Happy Tears
Why'd you fall
Now you can't feel
anything at all
(Pre-chorus)
And the people passing by say
"Oh what a shame.
She's just an empty shell now
could've had everything."
(Chorus)
But a pretty face is nothing
once it turns to glass.
You know, I thought she truly loved me,
but it didn't last.
A tounge so sharp
it could cut through steel
inconsiderate of the way I feel
I Didn't know...
It would be so easy...
To walk away.
To run away.
with a smile on my face.
(V2)
Little girl
Don't you hide
Your scars are still beautiful
Even in my eyes.
Angry Tears
They never lie
There's a strength in you
It'll help you to survive
(Pre-Chorus)
Screw those people walking by that say
"Oh what a shame.
She's just an empty shell now
could've been anything."
(Chorus)
But your pretty face is nothing
once it turns to glass.
I tried to save the pieces
but it didn't last.
A tounge so sharp
it could cut through steel
inconsiderate of the way I feel
I Didn't know it would be
so easy...
To walk away.
To run away.
with a smile on my...
:(Bridge):
Hanging from that pedestal
That was so high!
Used to be so strong and honest
Now you won't even try!
(Bridge 2)
Nobody's perfect...
Don't feel ashamed.
But you'll lose your loved ones...
Playin' that manipulative game.
(Repeat chorus)
Didn't want to walk away.
Didn't want to run away.
But to survive
Needed to revive
The missing smile...from...my...face...
Getting to the point that all mental illnesses are not created, treated, or accurately portrayed equally. This isn't your "inspirational" blog where people who think they know what is best for you/us. People try...they really do...but the TRUTH is that we didn't swap shoes and walk the opposite paths (not to say anyone is better or worse than anyone else).
Now that I've heard you sing via YouTube reading this song has me SO emotional. You are such a talent.
ReplyDeleteDo you write a lot of poetry? I am far to shy to share poems I've written but I can blog. It's weird. I guess I find the artistry of song/Poe
So intimidating.
You rock!
