Colours Run - 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
