The scars on my arms felt like tattoos of pain
The lies you spat in my face burned as they ran down.
And you said it was love.
And I believed you.

The poison on your tongue tasted like
Hope to my lonely naïve soul
I drank up your words that scarred my mouth.
And you said it was love.
And I believed you.

The torment in my eyes shrouded all in darkness
But you sent out lightning to shine the way
It hit my body and scorched holes through my heart.
And you said it was love.
And I believed you.
