I’ve been dumb and so heartsick Dumb enough to fall For all of my heart’s tricks
Strike me up and watch me burn For secrets now I hide For lessons now I’ve learned
Will you love me After where I’ve been Will you hold me And not feel my skin Can you see me Through my scars Will you love me And my secondhand heart
I tried hard enough to know I wouldn’t let you in I couldn’t let you go
So strike me up and watch me burn For secrets we all hide For lessons we’ve all learned
Will you love me After where I’ve been Will you hold me And not feel my skin Can you see me Through my scars Will you love me And my secondhand heart
I have tried so many times To find reasons why I’m in your sights When all you have in me Is that we’re happy Is that enough To keep me in your mind
Won’t you love me After where I’ve been Won’t you hold me And not feel my skin Please just see me Through my scars Will you love me And my secondhand heart
