Scarred For Life Lyrics - Night In Gales

[Swano - Swano/Elkhart] 

I'm feeling so empty inside 

When the fragments of pain return from the back of my mind 

Of all of the lies I've been told "We love you" must be the worst 

I couldn't find any reason to stay 

My life is too precious to sacrifice 

The darkest of shadows follow my soul 

Tonight I will join all lost ones on the run 

I have to run away 

I'm all alone in this world 

When the memories arise and punch a new hole in my soul 

I'm hiding my head in my hands for the fragments to disappear 

I wait for the nightfall, eager to leave 

I whisper goodbye to the house of fear 

Watching my sister cry in her sleep 

One day she will understand 

I know I'm scarred for life 

all messed up with no place to go 

I'm out here all alone 

Lonelier than the streets I wander 

I'll always have these scars inside 

I'm scarred for life 

I'm lost in the cold of the night 

Looking for shelter until the dawn turns to day 

I'm holding my hands to my head 

For the silence to reappear 

The fragments and places remembered with fear 

Never to leave, just fade away 

I'll carry them with me forever and a day 

Just like a nail in my heart
