The deepest scars

Go deeper than skin

And they hurt much more

Since they’re buried within

They come from words

The ones filled with hate

They fall on you hard

Like the heaviest weight

They come from those people

The ones who aren’t right

They spit horrible things

Cruel words that kill your light

You try to run and hide

To protect your wounded heart

But these words always find you

And always tear you apart

The deepest scars

Make you as cold as ice

Make you hate much more

And become anything but nice

You try to fight

But this never works

You are no match

For the evil that lurks

It beats you down

When you try to attack

While the ice inside

Always holds you back

The deepest scars

Cause so much pain

They change your heart

And become your bane

No one will listen

When you call out and plead

They ignore all your cries

While you sit there and bleed

You can’t seem to escape

No matter how fast you run

And these buried scars

Make you come undone
