In lightness, in darkness, in fighting injustice
We turn to each other, we push each other away

I was born, unblemished, full of wonder and the joy of life
My mother, she guarded me, until that boy at the playground punched out my lights
and i realized, nobody, can protect me from my life

We spend some time
We break some hearts
We love then heal
and we cherish our scars

I grew up, i messed up, i had some kids of my own
I’ve tried not to shield them and maybe sometimes i’ve been a bit too hard

I’ve tried to hide my dark side
I haven’t always done... so well

When I’m tired, and lonely, feeling like my guitar is my only friend
I sing to my dark side, maybe try to help it find some light

We spend some time
We break some hearts
We love then heal
and we cherish our scars
