With the years and comes the wars
Wounds that never truly heal
And you get a reputation for yourself
Of never backing down from a fight
Now the years go passing by and I
Just keep learning to survive
[Chorus]
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Don't cry, 'cause the damage done, done, done
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Reveal who I am inside
[Verse 2]
In between the lines of age and youth
I lost my smile, I lost the truth
I lost the feeling, I lost the proof
I lost my will to participate
[Chorus]
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Don't cry, 'cause the damage done, done, done
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Reveal who I am inside
[Verse 3]
Aching like a man who's been burned
Ashes waiting for the tide
I'm searching for anything to help
Ease my mind
[Chorus]
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Don't cry, 'cause the damage done, done, done
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Reveal who I am inside
Show me there's still something true
[Bridge]
I was searching for a different way to live
But instead I kept right to the same old sin
I guess I needed some way to forget
[Chorus]
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Don't cry, 'cause the damage done, done, done
Scar tissue I wish you would heal
Reveal who I am inside
[Outro]
I'm alive
