Scars
by Rachelle Luk

Album: Even Now

Verse 1
I am the shadow on your skin
Of every fall you’ve ever taken
I am the proof of what you’ve left behind
I am the lasting evidence
Of every painful accident
Etched on a surface you can’t redesign

Chorus 1
Didn’t I teach you not to play with fire
Didn’t I warn you not to climb so high
How many times must I remind you
Be on guard
Be careful or you’ll earn yourself another scar

Verse 2
I hate to say “I told you so”
But I think your heart already knows
Trading your safety brings no guarantees
I’ve heard already you’ve got plans
To reach out and risk yourself again
What if the next time I can’t stop the bleed?

Chorus 1
Didn’t I teach you not to play with fire
Didn’t I warn you not to climb so high
How many times must I remind you
Be on guard
Be careful or you’ll earn yourself another scar

Bridge
Bruises fade but scars remain
Scars remain
Time keeps passing what will stay
What will stay
Bruises fade but scars remain
Scars remain
Will you remember the healing
Or just the pain

Chorus 2
Didn’t I give you all my good advice?
Didn’t I say that you would pay a price?
How many times must I remind you
Be on guard
Be careful or you’ll earn yourself another scar
Another scar
Another scar
