Scars

You clench your fist, she gives you a hug

Tell you she loves you

But you've been drinking too much

But you don't quit, instead you'd rather fuss

And take it to the point to where she can't get up

And it makes you feel sick, it breaks your heart

Cause you never meant for it to go this far

But you got a kid who has to live with the scars

They can only see you whenever there's bars

I need a medic

Yeah, I need a medic

Give me a medic

Yeah, call me a medic

She said I ain't seen him laugh in a long time

Seems life abandoned him to the wrong side

Remember the night they split and we all cried?

I think for certain a large part of my heart died

They brought me up

Thinking life was rainbows and sunshine

Grew up to find that time proves that they all lied

For so long, convinced ourselves we were all fine

But the night he came back at 3 AM again was the last time

Alcohol consuming his breath

Mom said, Don't you think of taking a step in this house

Told you last time, one more time

And you're out, so what now?

Is our family worth less to you

Than a night blacking out?

Slammed the door and then she dropped to the floor

Tears streaming down her face said

I can't do it no more

Said, I tried to be strong for you

Keep the family together

But it's healthier this way

And in the end we'll be better

You clench your fist, she gives you a hug

Tell you she loves you

But you've been drinking too much

But you don't quit, instead you'd rather fuss

And take it to the point to where she can't get up

And it makes you feel sick, it breaks your heart

Cause you never meant for it to go this far

But you got a kid who has to live with the scars

They can only see you whenever there's bars

I need a medic

Yeah, I need a medic

Give me a medic

Yeah, call me a medic

I said, Don't you worry. No, that won't be us

She said, I'd like to know that

But there's not much I trust

It's confusing cause I used to know their love that was

And it all went downhill in just a matter of months

She said, You grow up fast when your fantasies die

And nothing comes of wishing on the stars in the sky

What if it runs in my genes? What if I do it to you?

Your heart's been broken before

Don't let me be the next bruise

I said, What if the stars brought us together

To bring your fantasies back?

And you're a beautiful soul

Why you've been thinking like that?

You're not like that, seen it in many of chats

You're your own damn person, you are not your Dad

He made mistakes and you learned from them

I've made my mistakes

You're what I earned from them

So we both know what love can be

So lets bring back the fantasies

Grab my hand, we're right where were supposed to be

You clench your fist, she gives you a hug

Tell you she loves you

But you've been drinking too much

But you don't quit, instead you'd rather fuss

And take it to the point to where she can't get up

And it makes you feel sick, it breaks your heart

Cause you never meant for it to go this far

But you got a kid who has to live with the scars

They can only see you whenever there's bars

I need a medic

Yeah, I need a medic

Give me a medic

Yeah, call me a medic
