Get Some Scars

The night was cool and bleeding black
As you crawled out across the glass - oh oh!
With my blood and bones and feathers in your teeth

I was coming down fast from where once was wonder
I was coming down fast, black dog on my back
I was coming down fast from where once was wonder
I was coming down fast

The night was cool and bleeding black
As you crawled out across the glass - oh oh!
With my blood and bones and feathers in your teeth
I swear to God the Ghost and Father
Sometimes it’s just so much harder
So much harder to hold your breath than to breathe
But it comes so easily

Oh while we’re young yeah
Let’s go out and get some scars
Because when we’re older we’ll wear them to tell us apart

No this feeling won’t last, so we sink to a slumber
Singing every balloon you blow up I burst”
No this feeling won’t last so we sink to a slumber
Screaming “you killed me first”

Where once was wonder is now the feeling
Of weeping like the water wheel
That just keeps turning till we’re numb
Blue summer, no dice son
Set these controls for that blue moon
Just like you did when I was cruel
But if we’re going up and up and up
We aren’t coming down too soon
We aren’t coming down too soon

Oh while we’re young yeah
Let’s go out and get some scars
Because when we’re older we’ll wear them to tell us apart

Oh while we’re young yeah, let’s go out and get some scars
Because when we’re older we’ll wear them to tell us apart
We’ll wear them to tell us apart

When I get to the gutter I get up
And a show you the scars
That I won on my way to the bottom
When I get to the gutter I get up
I get up and I show you the scars

When I get to the gutter I get up
And a show you the scars
That I won on my way to the bottom
When I get to the gutter I get up
I get up and I show you the scars

Oh when we’re older, let’s meet up
And show the scars we got when we were young
We’ll need them to tell us apart

Oh when we’re older, let’s meet up
And show the scars we got when we were young
We’ll need them to tell us apart
We’ll need them to tell us apart
