Today feels like it might be the wrong day for me to die
I've been spending too much time
Believing in self-created lies
And words are just words
Until they're put in to work
And I'm standing so firm in this, firm in this

Leave a mark upon the world
Not across your arms
A mark upon the world
Too beautiful for scars

I can only hold up half the sky at one time
And I got through today so
I could help you sleep at night
I feel a tired in my eyes trying
To find the sunrise
And I'm learning that life is getting
Through the night

Leave a mark upon the world
Not across your arms
A mark upon the world
Too beautiful for scars
I understand you
A track record of track marks
A small collection of stories
That never get told again
I understand you
Take pride in all the marks upon your soul
Oh, they should show
You you've been through
A hell of a life alone

Leave a mark upon the world
Not across your arms
A mark upon the world
Too beautiful
Leave a mark upon the world
Not across your arms
A mark upon the world
Too beautiful for scars
