Paper Scars

I know we’re two different melodies
Between indie’s calm and rock’s intensity
A bittersweet taste in the tone of our voice
One part burns, the other brings peace

Many notes, different voices in one song
Like lightning striking the same place twice
The luck of having shades that blend as one
We’re a clash of stars in shifting light

Just like sand becomes clear glass
Rough crystal can be shaped with time
These shifting rhythms are poetry
We sing the truest lines with soul and rhyme

We are like paper scars
Fragile things that could tear apart
But they remain, they can be seen and read
We are paper scars

We turn our scars into lyrics
They can reach beyond the skin
You hear them, feel them, and relate
Music has the power to dive within

Like flames that burn from deep inside
They spread through every part of us
We are paper scars, that’s who we are
And in this song, we’re gonna reach your heart

We are like paper scars
Fragile things that could tear apart
But they remain, they can be seen and read
We are paper scars
