She plays with the lions
And pulls tigers' tails
She howls with the wolves
And sets fire to the hills

She brushes the leopards,
Combs the panther's hair
She growls with the jaguars
And snarls with the bears

"This girl's a wild one," they say
"Keep your distance, stay away
She'll steal your claws,
Make them her own,
And scratch
Until she's alone"

Scars
She has scars
But she won't let you heal them
Won't let you tear down her walls
She's too strong to be beaten

She wants you to see her
She makes her scars be known
She even seems to boast them
'That one's from a wolf'

She'll show the world her wild
Her crazy won't be hidden
If you'll admit that she's the strongest
You might escape being bitten

She's not afraid of her heart
She's not a monster to be tamed
She'll make you see her scars
They tell stories of what she's faced
