Mark On My Arm was supposed to be the first single from CAIDAN’s freshman album, When The Sun Rises, before it leaked. It is about a girl who hurt Caidan but still wanted to remain friends with but things turned toxic.
[Intro: CAIDAN]
You got that hold on me
Used to be so close to me
I told you things, I don’t even tell myself, no-oh
[Verse 1: CAIDAN]
It’s sad but you got me good (Got me good)
I know I shoulda trusted my gut (Trusted my gut)
Why I didn’t listen? I should’ve (I really should’ve)
Now I’m 'pondering, like what? (What?)
What? (What?) just happened? (Just happened?)
Stop (Stop) the cappin’ (The cappin’)
I (I) am glad that (Am glad that)
I (I) had planned that (Had planned that)
There is something that we lack
But (But) besides that (Besides that)
Where’s (Where’s) the map at? (The map at?)
I gotta grasp that
[Pre-Chorus: CAIDAN & SLB]
In this day and age, thеre’s a period you have to wait
Can’t tеxt them every day, it hurts too much to say
But I don’t want to date, I just want to be, friends
Wait, is it recording?
[Chorus: SLB]
All I got left is the mark on my arm
Can’t forget about your sweatshirt
The smell brought back bad memories
I tried to snap myself out of this dream
It’s so hard to believe that love
Just really isn’t what it seems
It’s not like the movies and tv shows
That you see on the screen
[Verse 2: CAIDAN]
I said that you could live with me
I could use the company
That’s when you went and lied to me
I thought things would go so differently
You can blame me cause I admit I was wrong
You can play me but don’t steal from my mom
I guess it’s my fault you didn’t want to stay
Didn’t wanna stay, longer than a day
[Pre-Chorus: CAIDAN]
In this day and age, there’s a period you have to wait
Can’t text them every day, it hurts too much to say
But I don’t want to date, I just want to be, friends
I just want to be friends
[Bridge: CAIDAN]
But I wonder if I’ll get those shades back
That I left in your room
I don’t even know if I want them back
Cause they’ll make think of you
And I saw you wearing my shirt, the other day
And everything went so numb
It’s hard to forget when you fucked up my head
Cause our love was so strong
At least that’s what I thought
[Chorus: SLB]
Now all I got left is the mark on my arm
I can’t forget about your sweatshirt
The smell brought back bad memories
I tried to snap myself out of this dream
It’s so hard to believe that love
Just really isn’t what it seems
It’s not like the movies and tv shows
That you see on the screen
[Outro: CAIDAN]
Don’t ask why we’re talkin’ again cause all I do
Is dream of you screaming Caidan
Every single day, can’t get my mind off of you
I just wish this would end
Mark On My Arm (LEAK) was written by CAIDAN-V.
Mark On My Arm (LEAK) was produced by .
This was gonna be a really big hit before it leaked unfinished. I scrapped the idea of making a finished version because there was no point. The beat was made by the leaker, the feature I am no longer friends with. So it will remain in the vault. Probably never to be seen in finished glory.
The song leaked with placeholder vocals from both I, and the feature. We were both gonna re-record eventually, but this was just the demo version.
