Scars

Oh I hate this place
Faces I can’t erase
I choke on every scream I try to invoke
Oh I hate this place
A cage of rife decay
Each hour’s like a dagger, slitting my throat

I can’t get away
Let me just slip away
All I do is drown my face in the blood
This world is not a place to live
Why is it so hard to forgive?

This world is not a place to live
This life is not for me to live

I’m not here to scratch your heart
When word is made flesh it leaves a scar
I’m not here to scratch your heart
I am here to rip your world apart

You always wanted my best
My best was never enough
How can I forge my own fate?
When all that you see
Is a picture you painted of me
Something I’ll never be

Why do I hate myself sometimes?
And everything is pale
How can I love myself?
When every little scar is tearing me apart
No-one ever taught me how to live
How do I forget?
How do I forgive you?

Father? Why have you forsaken me?
Father? Why have you forsaken me?
Was I ever enough?
Can I get enough?
I hope that one day you could see
Father? Why have you forsaken me?

Never enough
Never enough
Never enough
Forever in love
Never enough
Never enough
