You got lost, love, and you found trouble

When you went looking for your life

You got some scars and some others suffer

But you keep on reaching for the light

The doors of your heart were kicked open

But you're leaving history far behind

Can't break what's already been broken

And now it's time

I know, know, know

All that you've been through

So I know, know, know

Who you are, who you are

Let 'em show, show, show

It's your scars that give you beauty

You're a beauty

Don't cover your scars

Your scars

Don't cover your scars

They're your scars

Don't cover your scars

They're your scars

You're looking up now, you're looking skyward

Your blackest night is turning blue

All the tyrants that you've defeated

The only one that's left is you

The doors of your heart were kicked open

But you're leaving history far behind

Can't break what's already been broken

But now it's time

I know, know, know

All that you've been through

I know, know, know

Who you are, who you are

Let 'em show, show, show

It's your scars that give you beauty

You're a beauty

Don't cover your scars

Don't cover your scars

They're your scars

Don't cover your scars

They're your scars

I'm the last of your loves, the loser, the least

I'm the name on the form that demands your release

I'm the silence when you grieve

I'll keep you company, even if you don't believe that it's me

Put your hands on my hand

Feel the nails of the state

Punching holes in the innocent

To fill them with hate

When the townhall cries

For someone to blame

Making laws out of lies

And legal robes out of shame

Put your hand in my side

Feel the contours of control

The silver spikes of friendship

Traded for a soul

The touch and the taste of me

Vinegar sweet

You won't know who I am

The next time we meet

The next time we meet
