Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna see the light
I wanna see the light
I wanna see the light in your eyes
Oh, you don′t know my scars
But, oh, it's not who we are, who we are

Oh, you don′t know my scars
But, oh, it's not who we are, who we are

I wanna see the light
I wanna see the light
I wanna see the light in your eyes
Oh, you don't know my scars
But, oh, it′s not who we are, who we are

Oh, you don′t know my scars
But, oh, it's not who we are, who we are
