Today feels like it might be The wrong day for me to die. I've been spending too much time Believing in self-created lies And words are just words Until they're put in to work. And I'm standing so firm in this, firm in this. Leave a mark upon the world, Not across your arms, A mark upon the world Too beautiful for scars. I can only hold up half the sky at one time And I got through today So I could help you sleep at night. I feel a tired in my eyes Trying to find the sunrise And I'm learning that life is getting through the night. Leave a mark upon the world, Not across your arms, A mark upon the world Too beautiful for scars. I understand you. A track record of track marks, A small collection of stories That never get told again. I understand you. Take pride in all the marks upon your soul. Oh, they should show you You've been through a hell of a life alone Leave a mark upon the world, Not across your arms, A mark upon the world Too beautiful for scars.
