testify to heal the wounds inside
walk the path of endless lies
in denial of a wretched past
walk the walk of a guilty man
scarred from years of deadly abuse
i'm pulling through with everything i can't undo
the stress is killing me inside
to please everyone. everyone but myself
crushing all that is challenged
i really wonder if one day i'll surrender
open scars. these wounds will never heal
open scars. this heart you'll never steal
shutdown. justify this rage that's roaming over
to sacrifice it all for the sake of others
and no one gives a fuck that my life is over
the stress is killing me inside
to please everyone. everyone but myself
crushing all that is challenged
i really wonder if one day i'll surrender
open scars. these wounds will never heal
open scars. this heart you'll never steal
