Scarred Awake

I wake up with these marks again
Proof of where I’ve been
I tried to heal, I tried to change
But the scars remain

I'm scarred awake
And I can’t escape
Every mistake
Is written in me

I feel it crawl under my skin
Every fight I didn’t win
I stand here bruised but breathing still
Wondering if I ever will

I'm scarred awake
And I can’t escape
Every mistake
Is written in me

I survived
But I'm not the same

I'm scarred awake
But I'm still alive
Scarred awake
I refuse to die
