Shimmering Scars


The coldest summer, you withdrew further
And gave a little less, you took the sun away
You say you're with me, then ghost right through me
I'll never understand how it slipped away

All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
And everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars

Stonewall silence, I beg for guidance
But every vow we made unravelled through the pain
And if you say it's nothing, then why are your eyes still flooding?
We stamped the embers out; I carried half the blame

All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
And everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Was I not enough? Was I not enough?
What still remains? I don't wanna break
Was I not enough? Was I not enough?
I can't start again, I carry half the blame
I carried half the blame

All I ever dreamed of
Has fled to the stars and hides in the dark
Everyone I reached for
They tear me apart, encoding my heart
With shimmering scars

(Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I can't start again
(Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
