Proof

When I was young I came to you
You stole my heart and no one knew
And in the shadows of my youth
I earned the scars, I have the proof

When I inhaled that strange perfume
I lost myself and bowed to you
What wasn’t said became the truth
I earned the scars, I have the proof

The setting concrete in my bed
The lonely nightmares in my head
And in the wake of things unsaid
I earned the scars, I have the proof

Surrounded yet I am alone
Surrender to the great unknown
Nobody knows me quite like you
These fading scars are now my proof
