Lyrics

I carry scars from battles of love I have lost
What gives you the right to stand there and judge
You don't know me you criticize what I do
I don't need any more from you

What a pity the lack of your empathy shows
So empty you know how to cut 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 you don't care
Saying goodbye to you gives me one less scar to bear

No excuse for pushing my feelings around
There's a loser like you in every crowd
Oh yeah, just wipe that smirk off your face
Forever I'll think of you with disgrace
