Scars
Robbie Cavanagh Lyrics

I'm barely conscious and still feel the pain,
I'm in a state of emotional exhaustion and physical agony

With a heavy conscience and pouring down rain,
I'm weighed down by guilt, while the environment reflects my emotions with heavy rain

It's the last commitment to a broken down thing,
It's the final effort to fix our broken relationship

And I could pin this all on your name.
I could blame everything on you

There's a page between us written in blood,
Our past experiences together have left a significant impact on our relationship

It says love is futile and distance is good,
It suggests that our love is pointless and that distance might be better for us

So it takes an author to know where you're standing,
Only someone who has gone through a similar experience can understand our current situation

And I believe you'd leave if you could.
I think you would end this relationship if you had the courage to do so

And if the scars around my neck girl mean nothing,
If the physical and emotional damage you caused me are meaningless to you

Let the battle recommence if you still care,
We can try again and work on our relationship if you are still willing

And if the words that you have written mean you're sorry,
If your apology is sincere

Then why am I still leaving our home, I don't know.
But I still feel compelled to leave and end our relationship, even though I don't fully understand why

On each occasion I carried you home,
I have always been there for you and helped you through difficult times

And you ask politely to be on your own,
Yet you always push me away and ask for space when I need you most

And you made the promise to never get stoned,
You promised to never turn to drugs to cope with your problems

The things you do to get yourself some.
But you still find ways to escape your reality

So let me go,
I need to leave and move on

I will soon be the king and all I want is to hunt while you're fighting,
I want to focus on myself and succeed while you are struggling

And all is the boy with the voice and he screams just keep me safe, keep me young, keep me faithful, keep me faithful.
I'm still a vulnerable person who needs protection, love, and loyalty

And if the scars around my neck girl mean nothing,
If the harm you caused me hold no value to you

Let the battle recommence if you still care,
We can try again if you still care about me and our relationship

And if the words that you have written mean you're sorry,
If your apology is genuine

Then why am I still leaving our home, I don't know,
But despite your apology, I still feel compelled to end our relationship, and I don't fully understand why

I don't know, and I don't know, and I don't know.
I'm unsure of my own feelings and motivations
