Bad Tattoo

(album: Heartbeat Highway - 2023)

Take a minute remember the past
Keep it all in view
Takin it in with a knife in my back, a wound that's waiting to heal

I should regret it, but I don't
Should cover it up, but I won't
It's that vision of you
Like a bad tattoo
Bad tattoo

Still learning to take my time gonna make mistakes
You know, even when the sun don't shine, yea, I still got faith
Gonna let my broken pieces tell the truth

Like a bad tattoo
Like a bad tattoo

Did I learn about love in the back of a car, ya
Did I learn about trust in the ring with suffering

Like a preacher needs pain to stay sane
Like thunder needs rain, I keep it in view
Like a bad tattoo
Bad tattoo

Like a bad tattoo
Like a bad tattoo

Still learning to take my time gonna make mistakes
You know, even when the sun don't shine, yea, I still got faith
Gonna let my broken pieces tell the truth

Like a bad tattoo
Like a bad tattoo

Like a preacher needs pain to stay sane
Like thunder needs rain, I keep it in view
Like a bad tattoo
Bad tattoo

Like a preacher needs pain to stay sane
Like thunder needs rain, I keep it in view
Like a bad tattoo
Bad tattoo
