[Chorus: Lydia]

Never felt so lonely

I never thought that it would go that far

That the darkest side would own me

Pulling me away from my own heart

Please don't touch my scars

Promise you won't touch my scars

Close the beast behind those bars

Might just tear us both apart


[Verse 1: GAWNE]

Yeah, I look for love, but none was found

Hate me because I'm underground

Yeah, lately seems I've become a clown

Here come the crowds

Internet trolls and abundance

How they love to go run their mouths

Rainy days and thunderclouds

I just pray that the sun comes out (Sun comes out)

London Bridge falling down, lonely nights, not a sound

Just my thoughts, what's the cause?

Don't really know what it's all about

I search for love, looked all around

Still all alone when you're in a house

That don't feel like home

Keep the windows open just to feel the cold

And your skin, I know, been in it for so long

That it feels like some days I'ma lose my grip

I can't hold on anymore, no

But I go down in flames like a plane, Amelia Earhart

Guess I'm bout to go die, oh, my

Got a fucking closed mind

With a hole inside that's blacker than a fucking coal mine

Barely holding on, I never


[Chorus: Lydia]

Never felt so lonely

I never thought that it would go that far

That the darkest side would own me

Pulling me away from my own heart

Please don't touch my scars

Promise you won't touch my scars

Close the beast behind those bars

Might just tear us both apart


[Verse 2: GAWNE]

Sometimes, when I'm sleeping, I go off the deep end and lose it

I'm lucidly dreaming the hurt away

'Til I wake up in paralysis like I done fractured a vertebrae

Woke up today feeling anxious

Like what if I die before I even make it to thirty-eight?

Will I see Pearly Gates valley at a shadow of death?

And your death is just always a breath away

Yep, it's affirmative, death is a scar that is permanent

But the legend's eternal, so, I just keep working on leaving my mark

In this world like superbly, pain is temporary

Get up and put on a tourniquet

If you're not terminal, pussy, throw dirt in it

Dance with the devil and you will get burned again

Living in a wicked worldm rather be hurting and murdering each other

Tather than loving one another, look, what we'll become and used to be like

Brothers, now we're nothing, but a bunch of fucking suckers

Evil is among us, fighting overcomes our politicians

Loving corporations knocking workers paying because

The paying us next to nothing else, we don't have the money

But we have the power, we got strength in numbers

We can overcome the scars of 2020


[Chorus: Lydia]

Never felt so lonely

I never thought that it would go that far

That the darkest side would own me

Pulling me away from my own heart

Please don't touch my scars

Promise you won't touch my scars

Close the beast behind those bars

Might just tear us both apart
