Scarred
Like Pacific Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Please god if you exist, I'm questioning my faith like I never did
You have no answers(for anything)
Do you miss me yet
Cause I always let you take from me
I'd rather bleed to death
If I give you one more chance, will you prove me wrong
Cut open my chest, there's no feeling left
For someone who left me, are we done yet
I'd kill to burn your photos but oh how you'd love that
You're being though about
I'd rather bleed To death
Than be forgotten
You've seen a side of me that's been scarred, burned beyond recognition
If I give you one more chance, than I'm a sucker for repetition
Afraid of blank space, and consistency
You've seen seen a side of me that's been scarred
Peel back my nails, I've never worked so hard
You've seen a side of me that's been scarred
The song “Scarred” by Like Pacific is about a painful breakup and the aftermath and emotions that come with it. The first few lines express the singer's incompatibility with their past partner and how their value system did not align with their ex. The lines “You're not worth my time (no settling)” indicate the singer's unwillingness to compromise their worth and settle for someone who does not meet their standards. The next few lines are a plea to God and doubts in their faith, which shows the depth of pain the singer is experiencing. The line “You have no answers (for anything)” signifies the singer's realization that their ex does not hold the answers to their problems.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the scars the singer is carrying from their past relationship. They have been hurt and scarred so deeply that even the thought of reconciling with their ex makes them feel like bleeding to death would be better than giving them another chance. The lines “You’ve seen a side of me that's been scarred, burned beyond recognition” talk about how the singer's previous relationship has left them with such deep emotional scars that they feel unrecognizable to themselves. The second verse is a direct message to the ex-significant other. The singer expresses how they have nothing left to feel anymore in response to their absence. They question whether they should end things or whether their ex-partner will return. The line “You've seen a side of me that's been scarred” is once again a reference to the deep emotional scars the singer carries from the relationship.
Overall, “Scarred” is an emotional, introspective song filled with the pain of heartbreak and betrayal, where the singer realizes that sometimes it's better to let go than hold on to toxic relationships that do more damage than good.
