You're peeling the pain from your canvas The face you made with your brush You k** your creation in anger Cruelty that once was your crush The painting is peeled and your darling dead The secret of love turns its hideous head Written in scars - cuts wide and deep Written in stars - dark light in your sleep Lost count of the wars - You lost count of the score Returned to the trenches each time to fight more Thought you escaped your nightmare - your curse To find you were waking from one to a worse Written in scars - cuts wide and deep Written in stars - dark light in your sleep
It's written in scars now - your cuts wide and deep It's written in stars now - dark light in your sleep In memory of her brittle heart Amused - abused - accursed Your aquarelle - your living hell It's right here on Earth Erase - every trace Of feelings and pain Find your peace When your lips stop saying her name It's written in scars now - your cuts wide and deep It's written in stars now - dark light in your sleep In memory of her brittle heart Amused - abused - accursed You live to tell - You're leaving hell It's night here on Earth
