Scars unsaid

Lyrics

Intro
"I see things in people, and I feel like if I can touch it, even if the rest of the person is rotten, I can take that good thing and I can make it part of me."
Verse
My world split into two
Love you/ hate you
Same breath
Every night I hold that ghost
Every morning feels like death

Tonight all I need is a little whiskey and the whispers of my neck of the woods.
Every scar a story
Every word unsaid
Got a Backwood buzz, everyones gettin lit
Your boys with you, talkin shit
But I been down roads you ain’t yet
You’re lightin fires with a crowd you aint met

I got scars Ill never forget
Choices I swore I wouldnt regret
I don’t confess, I cant give in
Last chance son
Before you get hit

Pre-Chorus]
I’m tired of begging
For a face you won’t see
You never wanted the good
You just wanted me guilty

My world split into two
Love you/ hate you
Same breath
Every night I hold a ghost
Every morning comes with dread

Tonight all I need
Is a little whiskey
And the whispers of my neck of the woods
Every scar a story
Every word unsaid
And I can feel it coming back

Feared I’d be a punchline
Talked about in small-town gas lines
Said I’d end up drunk by noon
Beggin’ change, beggin’ for a lifeline
But I studied pain like scripture
Never cowered under pressure
Turned every “can’t” to a plan
Now they quote this picture
Concrete on my ankles
Still I learned to move
Even with the weight on my shoulders
I had somethin’ to prove (yeah)

But tonight were light this up
Gonna let our problems catch the breeze.
Crack that cooler and pour up a cup
All them bonfire friday fights
Bunch of trouble brewed beneath the moonlight
Tonight they aint but stories to tell.
So wont you pull up a chair aint nothin but us in sight tonight

Love you, hate you
Same breath, same fire
Love you, hate you
Gotta get higher
My world split in two
Both sides too hard to get through
Love you, hate you
But thats what I do
(love you, hate you)

Every morning feels like death
Maybe I'm wrong
maybe I'm wasting my life with these ghosts (oh)
but part of me steady hopes
that someday you'll see my side and look close
see the real me
see the care
see I was there
See im still there
