Hide the Scars

Walking home,
From school.
I feel like I always do,
I feel like a fool.

Wipe the tears,
Which are threatening to break through.
I wish that I was,
I wish that I was someone new.

I see the sun,
I see it rising in the sky.
Now when I trace my scars,
I feel like I can fly.

I will always be true to me,
I know one day my bravery will set me free.
I will fight forever, I won't cry anymore,
Today's the day I will even the score.

I'm a survivor. 

I walk the streets,
Of my hometown.
And I reflect,
On just how often I've felt down.

No one understands,
Quite how I feel.
Makes me feel like my emotions,
Are not a big deal.

You see the scars on my wrist,
You see my hand in a fist.
My heart is locked like a vault,
Little do you know it's all your fault.

I will always be true to me,
I know one day my bravery will set me free.
I will fight forever, I won't cry anymore,
Today's the day I will even the score.

I'm a survivor. 
I'm a survivor.
I'm a survivor.
