lyrics

You wear your scars
like they’re purple hearts
a victim’s award.
You wear your scars
like they’re who you are,
your birthmarks.

Find another flaw to blame,
another day to stay the same
but your refrain, your refrain, your refrain  
is “I can change, I can change, I can change”

You wear your scars
like they’re purple hearts
A victim’s award.
You wear your scars
like they’re who you are,
your birthmarks.

Another story to explain,
another heart to hold your pain
and your refrain, your refrain, your refrain
is “I can change, I can change, I can change.”

That night the frost clothed all the trees
Your arms slipped numbly from their sleeves
Your fingers fumbled through his hair,
and I froze at the bottom of the stairs.
