Battle Scars
I'm sorry for your battle scars
I'm sorry that the flowers break the vase
I'm sorry that it's never easy
Contemplating leaving but I won't get far
I never heard your battle cry
Never really seen you left behind
The apple never falls too far
You find me on my back beneath the burned out cars
Outside
Yeah
I never promised anything
I'm fickle and I'm sick of everything
I never looked ahead this far
Now every memory fading leaves a jagged scar
Aha
And as you trace a line into the shape of my frown
I'm staring up to the sky I don't wanna look down
Down
And as I scrape my fingers through the sycamore leaves
The memories only flickers though the crooked trees
You've been in my dreams
It's like chasing down my shadow sometimes
I'm living all my life by nursery rhymes
And every time I get too close
It's just the cavalry steal away my Holy Ghost
And as you rub your fingers through the hairs on my head
I wonder how I'm alive when I feel so dead
And as I sift through a mind of empty mason jars
All of your colours have faded with the passing cars
I'm sorry for your battle scars
I'm sorry that the flowers break the vase
I'm sorry that it's never easy
Contemplating leaving
But I won't get far
I'm sorry for your battle scars
I'm sorry that the flowers break the vase
I'm sorry that it's never easy
Contemplating leaving but I won't get far
I never heard your battle cry
Never really seen you left behind
The apple never falls too far
You find me on my back beneath the burned out cars
Outside
Yeah
I never promised anything
I'm fickle and I'm sick of everything
I never looked ahead this far
Now every memory fading leaves a jagged scar
Aha
And as you trace a line into the shape of my frown
I'm staring up to the sky I don't wanna look down
Down
And as I scrape my fingers through the sycamore leaves
The memories only flickers though the crooked trees
You've been in my dreams
It's like chasing down my shadow sometimes
I'm living all my life by nursery rhymes
And every time I get too close
It's just the cavalry steal away my Holy Ghost
And as you rub your fingers through the hairs on my head
I wonder how I'm alive when I feel so dead
And as I sift through a mind of empty mason jars
All of your colours have faded with the passing cars
I'm sorry for your battle scars
I'm sorry that the flowers break the vase
I'm sorry that it's never easy
Contemplating leaving
But I won't get far
I'm sorry for your battle scars
