Scars

Today is quiet
Close the window twice
Holding back my words, secretly
I fold my footsteps and turn back, just that path

A night just like yesterday
Half-empty scenes laid in a drawer
Deep inside, I stop and choke
Telling myself it’s okay, I go again (oh)

On that day, the blade you handed me caught the light
New grass growing at my toes, I breathe in your air (oh)
The more it scatters, the colder rue blooms
Yeah, I read you like a book

In the gap where it all spilled out
Pages turn to ash, it’s meaningless
But what about what remains?
Just because it disappears doesn’t mean it’s over

It’s just the blurred things
Scars remember everything
The mold and flowers walk on, bleeding
See, the eyes are rust and fade

With nowhere to lean
The wrinkles fill the empty room
Before I forget, I hold on tight
It’s okay, I know your cold warmth

On that day, the light at the end of my raindrop went out
Warm shadows in the gaps of my body, the damp stench spreads
The more I erase, the clearer the stain becomes
I end up knowing it all

At the end where it all spilled out
Pages turn to ash, it’s meaningless
But you know what remains?
If disappearing means it’s the end

It’s just the blurred end
Scars remind me of everything
The lost and voids and lights we made
See that days are fading away
