Scars - Shannon Saunders

Left in slow motion

You’re fine but then

You say You were changing your pace

You just throw em around

Try to blow this house down

When I couldn’t keep up

With your race

Your stick and stone left broken bones Your words they cut me

Open Question marks Tattooed

The parks But left the words unspoken

The scars of me and you

The scars of me and you

No they’ll never heal till you tell them to

The scars of me and you

Behind our doors

The line were drawn

Out we battle until we could sleep

With our bows and our rosewood

Hiding shadow and shout until we were weak

There’s bullet marks around

My heart

And your bruise black and blue

And I’ve skimmed beneath

My fingernails

And it belongs to you

Oh the scars of me and you

The scars of me and you

No they’ll never heal till you tell them to

The scars of me and you

Oh the scars of me and you

The scars of me and you

No they’ll never heal till you tell them to

The scars of me and you
