Pierced through the surface of my soul These scars feel like stories that we never wanted told And how do I forget when all I see Are these images of you creating war inside of me The mark you left runs deep So how can I not bleed Your name feels like needles in my skin The stain underneath is permanent I can't wipe away these memories that never should have been Now your name is just needles in my skin Living art that you create Written by the hands of fate Reminding me of our mistakes That we could not anticipate Another day in the life (The mark you left runs deep) To get you out of my sight (So how can I not bleed) Your name feels like needles in my skin The stain underneath is permanent I can't wipe away these memories that never should have been And now name is just needles in my skin And if I can't break through to you Than you were never mine to lose And if I can't break through to you Than go ahead live with the life you choose We knew this house we built was never gonna hold But it's hard to walk away when you have to learn to do it on your own Your name feels like needles in my skin The stain underneath is permanent Your name feels like needles in my skin The stain underneath is permanent I can't wipe away these memories that never should have been And now you're just needles in my skin Your name feels like needles in my skin The stain underneath is permanent (It's all that I can see) I can't wipe away these memories that never should have been (How do I escape) Now your name is just needles in my skin (Your name, your face, your stain)
