She holds the rosary
Clenched tight into her fist
She cries from broken dreams
and the pain that scars her wrist
Her thoughts hold her hostage
A social life that does not exist
Her lips touch the water
and this pill takes effect
She said why
Oh why
When I tried
I think I’ll hide
Old scars live
Here beneath the sleeve
You cannot take me
You will not take me
I felt so betrayed and broken
Oh God I’m broken now
Oh God I’m broken now
He always sits alone
Nobody pays attention
He’s got his hand on a gun
He feels the world is against him
He pulls the trigger in rage
Shots heard
Now we know his face
His name is all in lights
Spilled blood to feel love
And he said why
Oh why
When I tried
I think I’ll hide
Old scars live
Here beneath the sleeve
You cannot take me
You will not take me
I felt so betrayed and broken
Oh God I’m broken now
Oh God I’m broken now
This is for everything
You try to judge us
Why can’t you just let us breathe
Just let us be
What is broke is done to me
What is broke is done to me
What is broke is done to me
Fuck you
Old scars live
Here beneath the sleeve
You cannot take me
You will not take me
I felt so betrayed and broken
Oh God I’m broken now
Oh God I’m broken now
Old scars live
