Every Scar

I held your ghost for a thousand years in a cold embrace
I tried hard to forgive, I fought the hate
Time won't heal what it breaks, the paradox remains
Every scar tells a story, I'm no longer afraid

Old days that you forgot
Can't forgive, but loved you afar

I was just a boy finding his way
But the weight of your ghost haunts me to this day
I could just die tonight, it would be alright
I have no regrets about the choices I made

All the times that I failed, all the hugs that I gave
All the tears that I shared
Every scar tells a story, I'm no longer afraid

Like a snake shedding skin to escape the decay, leaving behind a past that asks me to stay
I broke free from the chains you carved in my mind
Every scar tells a story, I'm no longer afraid

All the times that I failed, all the hugs that I gave
All the tears that I shared
Every scar tells a story, I'm no longer afraid
