Scarred Heart


I feel like I’m running out of glue

My bottle is empty and I haven’t a clue

Of ways to make you stick together like new

What more can I do when you feel like you’re through?


The world’s full of beauty that could never replace her

But I can’t make her want to put down the razor

Some days are a daze, blur; we all make mistakes, sure

But I need to make sure the pain doesn’t erase her


Some days life seems to just fall apart

The pain always is there and we all play our part

Some things are just too hard to stop once they start

Every scar on your arm leaves a mark on my heart.


You’re so full of love and you’re so full of life

But sometimes you can’t see it and pick up the knife

I’m scared that one day you’ll see nothing but strife

That the tipping point tips and I’ll miss out on a wife


Blood mixes with water and depression holds the power

As your life flows from you to the drain of your shower

The pain gets too hungry and soon it devours

We fall to the floor alone; cry together for hours


Some days life seems to just fall apart

The pain always is there and we all play our part

Some things are just too hard to stop once they start

Every mark on your arm leaves a scar on my heart.
