Lyrics
-- Instrumental version also available --

I carry scars from battles of love I have lost
You don't know the burden of carrying this cross
You don't know me, who are you to judge
So ugly, why do you carry a grudge

What a pity, the lack of your empathy shows
So empty, you know how to slash to the bone
I bleed red, and yeah I've fallen apart
I'm not perfect, excuse me for having a heart

My heart is black and blue, so unfair
Knowing you like I do gives me one less scar to bear

Guys like you really stand out in the crowd
No excuse for pushing my feelings around
What's that letter branded upon your face
Forever I'll think of you with disgrace
