SCAR
Lucy Rose Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ask you to stay
Would that scar upon your lip
Move and come my way
Watch your eyes change from
Blue and back to green
Something deep inside of me is
But I don't want to have to let you go
Let this part of me
Remember how lovely we are, we are
If you saw in my mind
How I felt
You would hold me tight
And ask nothing else
I want you but I hate to say those words
But here I am
Standing right in front of you
Asking for a hand
But I don't want to have to let you go
Let this part of me
Remember how lovely we were, we were, we were, we were
If I don't get out
If I don't get out
If I don't get out
I have to leave somehow
But I'll never leave this town
Help me through this
Help me through this
Help me through this
Help me
You said you would be waiting
The lyrics of Lucy Rose's song "Scar" depict a protagonist who is struggling with their feelings towards someone they care about deeply. The first verse speaks of the singer's desire to ask the other person to stay, despite the fact that there is an unspoken tension between them, represented by the "scar upon [their] lip." The singer's uncertainty is evident in the line, "Something deep inside of me is telling me to leave."
The second verse delves deeper into the singer's conflicting emotions. They want the other person to understand how they feel but are afraid to say the words. The line, "If you saw in my mind how I felt, you would hold me tight and ask nothing else," reveals the singer's vulnerability and longing for comfort. However, they are still hesitant to take action as they fear losing the other person, as shown in the repetition of "But I don't want to have to let you go."
The chorus repeats the line, "Let this part of me remember how lovely we were," which suggests that the singer wishes to hold onto the fond memories of their time together, even if they cannot be together in the present.
Overall, "Scar" is a poignant song that captures the complexities of human emotions and relationships.

The hopeful, melancholy quality of Lucy's music both sound and lyric wise make me feel as if there is someone out there who truly understands what I am feeling, which is very comforting. Lucy's music has taught me it's okay to be sad for a while if I need to be and that it is okay to be alone for a little if I need that to heal. I feel as if those emotions are especially highlighted in this song and the music video only makes it better. Thank you miss lucy rose for understanding and helping me feel okay.

I actually felt the same about her music. There's that unique melancholy and playful happiness in her music that makes me feel so nostalgic.
