Scarred

(album: Calling The Wild - 2000)

My eyes just drink you in
And I always feel so much
I'm contemplating sin
And you know I'm losing touch
Everything is moving fast
I know that this must end
Like a drug that doesn't last
Let the hangover begin

There's pain that you left here
Though I don't know where you are
I always feel you there
Where I'm aching and I'm scarred

Can you see it in my eyes
Can you taste it in my tears
And I'm drowning every night
It's been going on for years
I keep calling out you name
I keep reaching out for you
In the sweetness and the pain
The scar becomes the truth

There's a clock right by my bed
It keeps blinking out the time
In a bloody shade of red
Just like what's on my mind
And the time passes slow
And this feeling never ends
And the darkness never goes
And the new day won't begin
There's a pain that you left here
Though I don't know where you are
I always feel you there
Where I aching and I'm scarred

Can you see it in my eyes
Can you taste it in my tears
And I'm drowning every night
It's been going on for years
I keep calling out you name
I keep reaching out for you
In the sweetness and the pain
The scar becomes the truth
