Scars lyrics

It s going to be the last time
I remember where I was born
For I m going to lift my wounded eyes
From the playgrounds and the lawns
I don t know why I hang around
Now all of my friends have gone, gone

So why not tear it all down
Slip this skin, and I could carry on
But it s hard, hard
To shake off your scars
When they re all you are

It s going to be the last time
That I recollect your face
For I m burning all your photographs
Going to hide what I can t erase

I don t know why I grieve so
Cos you were dead before I left
So why not burn them all down
Slip this skin, and I d be cast adrift

But it s hard, hard
To shake off your scars
When they re all you are

And I m just lonely
Now that no one owns me
...Yeah

So why don t you pull your covers up
And sink into your TV
There s no pain you can t kiss away
In the bed of a memory

Yeah, I could tear this wall down
But without hope, I know I won t get far
And what is life but a flag to haul down?
Because it s hard, hard
To shake off your scars
When they re all you are
Yes it s hard, hard
To shake off your scars
When they re all you are
...Yeah
