Scars
Medina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m back up high, on life, I’m flying.
But now you’ve come, you’ve come around when shit goes down.
Last time we kissed you left me dying.
I thought that I, I buried you deep in the ground.

Why you have to stop this beating, opening and closing feelings.
Why you have to stop this beating.
Why you have to stop this feeling,
I don’t want it, I don’t need it, why you have to stop this feeling.

Get outta my head, get outta my heart,
'Cause there ain’t no place for you anymore
when you’re leaving scars, you’re leaving the scars.
The door is open just keep walking.
And when it shuts, the cuts you made will heal again.

Why you have to stop this beating, opening and closing feelings.
Why you have to stop this beating.
Why you have to stop this feeling, I don’t want it, I don’t need it,
why you have to stop this feeling.

Get outta my head, get outta my heart,
'Cause there ain’t no place for you anymore
when you’re leaving scars, you’re leaving the scars.




Get outta my head, get outta my heart,
'Cause every time I let you in you’re leaving the scars.
