lyrics

Another late night sitting alone
Left to my weary, wondering, pondering, obsessive mind
Every last word that you said
Is stuck in my head just burning and turning, line after line

Fleeting luck is our curse
Could it be any worse?
Guess we're stuck in reverse

(All these scars) Every scar I've got is a memory of you
(Never healing) Tearing me to shreds
(All these scars) Leave me jaded, twisted, broken and askew
(Losing feeling) But I still lay here in your bed

I'll tell you what I have to show
For the years of abuse and misuse and miscues took a toll on me
Addicted to your emotional game
The self-loathing, the pain, and the shame of what I have come to be

Fleeting luck is our curse
Could it be any worse?
Guess we're stuck in reverse

(All these scars) Every scar I've got is a memory of you
(Never healing) Tearing me to shreds
(All these scars) Leave me jaded, twisted, broken and askew
(Losing feeling) But I still lay here in your bed

(All these scars, all these scars)
(All these scars, all these scars)
(I still had hope) Quick work for you to extiguish
(I still had hope) Every word is in anguish
(I still had hope) So watch your fucking language

(All these scars) Every scar I've got is a memory of you
(Never healing) Tearing me to shreds
(All these scars) Leave me jaded, twisted, broken and askew
(Losing feeling) But I still lay here in your bed
