Paisely Tears

A Beautiful Scene

Paisley Tears

Verse One
Awake to the sound of broken glass I know,
It’s far too real
A wispered word could spark a fight
We learn to play so still
In Shadows hiding from the light
Children against thier will

Chorus
But I’m more than this,
more than his storm,
A fire he can’t control.
I’m scars and strength,
Unbroken, whole, and bold.

Verse Two
The cracks run deep, the nights run long,
Each bruise a silent plea.
I close my eyes to brace the hit, And numb
the burning within
The years have passed, the scars remain, Etched deep
beneath my skin.

Bridge
Though echos live, in quiet rooms
Birthday smoke and all it’s gloom
Scars unseen, run far too deep
Lost in this space between
But where do we go from here

Chorus II
But I’m more than this,
I am scars and strength,
Unbroken, whole, and bold.
Cause I am more than this
So much more than this

Song Meaning-
Yeah, abuse from a father is terrible, a family letting you go through is worse. It is even more terrible when they think they are helping you through it years later only to cause more pain.
