Permanent Scars

Those pretty lies
I know them all too well
The quiet violence
I brought upon myself
Gone with the wind but somehow I`m not convinced
About your innocence

I`ve made mistakes
But you know you`ve made some too
It`s not black and white
That`s why I feel so blue
Inside and I try to pretend it`s not `bout you
We both know that ain`t true and

Oh
God knows that there are days where you don`t cross my mind
I hold my own
And then that`s the long lonely nights

Where it`s just everything you said in my head on repeat and I
Just can`t let it rest
Silhouettes on the street at night
Like you never left but you did
And I made it this far
Just know you left a permanent scar

I still run faster to keep from drifting slow
Into the places I know I shouldn`t go
Nobody is laughing but you would`ve loved that joke
I just know

And please believe that there are days where you don`t cross my mind
I hold my own
And then that`s the long lonely nights

Where it`s just everything you said in my head on repeat and I
Just can`t let it rest
Silhouettes on the street at night
Like you never left but you did
And I made it this far
Just know you left a permanent scar
Inside my chest
Now the rest of us is history
Look at all this mess that you left
Unsolved mysteries
Did you try your best?
Cause I did
And I made it this far
Just know you left a permanent scar

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

You left a permanent scar

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

Now it`s just everything you said in my head on repeat and I
Just can`t let it rest
Silhouettes on the street at night
Like you never left but you did
And I made it this far
Just know you left a permanent scar
