Heart Shaped Scar
(Chorus)
This heart-shaped scar is my souvenir
It proves I loved and I'm still right here
(Verse 1)
Used to trace your name in dust
On the windowsill, a sacred trust
Now I just wipe the slate clean
Don't get wound up by what might've been
(Chorus)
This heart-shaped scar is my souvenir
It proves I loved and I'm still right here
(Verse 2)
Remember cryin' in the rain
A hurt so deep I screamed your name
Now I can hear our favorite song
And find the strength to sing along
(Verse 3)
It wasn't pain I felt inside
Just the turning of a lonely tide
The love was real, the hurt was true
And both of them have seen me through
(Chorus)
This heart-shaped scar is my souvenir
It proves I loved and I'm still right here
(Verse 4)
It ain't forgiveness, not really
It's just a peace that's settled me
A settled dust, a faded stain
The gentle calm after the rain
(Bridge)
Some stories ain't for writin' twice
You pay the pain, but keep the price
And I wouldn't trade the lesson learned...
(Chorus)
This heart-shaped scar is my souvenir
It proves I loved and that I'm still right here...
(Outro)
Yeah... still right here...
My souvenir...
