scars in my hands
Emotional detachment
Maybe it’s all about that
And i have been wrong all the way through
Maybe i just don’t want any responsibilities
Of any kind
Walk lightly kid, i remind myself as I keep going
Maybe it is about the contraries
The things that hurt me the most
are the ones that shaped me the best
Maybe i can’t let go
Cause if i let go
I’m afraid it will all disappear
The effort, the pain, the struggle of becoming
Who i am
Who I left behind
The scars in my hands fading away
You, that moved the world around me
You, that showed me self-love through ruthless rage
And despicable hate
You, whom I loved for the way you hate
Broke through my ribcage like a guided missile,
Straight into my heart, ripping the love away
Deserted islands, all in distress
And I didn’t know then,
But he showed me the way
It was the love that I hold for his hate
That helped me found the love for myself
Destroyed, in pain
By hurting me the most, by hating me the best
Whipping with fury on to myself
again
You, that moved the world around me
Me, holding on so tight – refusing to forfeit
The only thing now holding me back is my revenge
My rage - that is my own cage
And as much I want to slip away
I can’t seem to forget the scars in my brains
Detached are my rails
Driving through the strains
Slow motion is what numbs the ache
Itching scars in my hands
That’s what makes me forget
That it was you
Who showed me the way
But I hope that one day
They will finally all fade away
So I can feel again
