SCAR
Ashton Irwin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Show me heaven maybe just for a day
I'm feeling something that I don't understand
Can you help me be a better man?
Mother mother, can you show me the way
Can you light a tunnel to light of day
I'm sick of dealing with the problems at hand
There's no need to run and hide
When the world leaves a scar
There's no need to say goodbye
When the world leaves a scar
It's a painful thing to try
Grit your teeth another time
When the world leaves a scar you
When the world leaves a scar
When the world leaves a scar
Sister lauren, don't you fade away?
Sister lauren, love you all the way
I'm feeling hopeful that you'll show a man
How to love someone as true as you can
Brother brother, we speak day to day
You're the blueprint for a future that's paved
My wishful thinking might not go as we planned
But I'll help you be a better man
There's no need to run and hide
When the world leaves a scar
There's no need to say goodbye
When the world leaves a scar
It's a painful thing to try
Grit your teeth another time
When the world leaves a scar you
When the world leaves a scar
Break down the door
There's something more
Don't be afraid that in the end
You'll have nothing
Break down the door
There's something more
Don't be afraid that in the end
You'll have nothing
Break down the door
Break down the door
Ooh
Yeah
Mother mother
Yeah
Sister sister
Yeah ooh
Brother brother
When the world leaves a scar on you
Mother mother
When the world leaves a scar
Sister sister
When the world leaves a scar
Brother brother
When the world leaves a scar
When the world leaves a scar on you
The song "Scar" by Ashton Irwin is a powerful message about overcoming the challenges and difficulties that life brings. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and the need for guidance and support from family members. The opening lines of the song, "Got me wishing god would show me the way, show me heaven maybe just for a day," suggest the singer's feelings of hopelessness and a desire for a way out. However, he then turns to his mother, sister, and brother for help, asking them to "light a tunnel to the light of day" and to show him how to be a better man.
The chorus of the song suggests that it is possible to overcome the scars that life leaves behind, even if it comes at a painful cost: "There's no need to run and hide, when the world leaves a scar. It's a painful thing to try, grit your teeth another time." The repetition of the line "When the world leaves a scar on you" reinforces this idea of endurance and resilience in the face of adversity. Ultimately, the song is about the importance of leaning on and supporting one another, even when times are tough.

PLEASE READ:
i can tell Ashton poured his heart and soul into this album and i’m so proud of him for coming out and talking about all these struggles he has faced in life and how they affected him, so people who are going through similar situations can relate to his music and feel a sense of worthiness.
And to all those people who are going through similar situations you are not alone and there is always someone to talk to and someone who cares. Everyday is another day you survived not another day you suffered in silence.
Also just remember life is worth living and i advise you to seek help while you still can. if not with someone you trust then with a mental health hotline in your area.
I love you and am so proud of you for making it this far :)

The meaning behind this song brings me to tears
The way he screams “mother mother, sister sister , brother brother” at the end gives me goosebumps ...
Also the way he says “sister Lauren don’t you fade away” just makes my heart melt
I have never related to a song so much
@ashtonirwin love you so much x thank you for saving me
