  • All the scars on my body and soul
    All the trouble I've known
    All the evil things that I'll say and do
    All comes back to

    Little boy, back when life was new to me
    Hiding in my room, waiting for my mom to leave
    I learned to lie, to save her from the truth
    I was raped when I was eight years old
    On a sunny afternoon

    I fall back to the black and white of here and now
    I need to come down, I think I need to come down
    I'm on my old street, a past that is so hard for me
    Looking for a place that I really do not ever want to see

    All the scars on my body and soul
    All the trouble I've known
    All the evil things I'll say and do
    It all brings me closer to you

    The house is empty, as I walk inside
    I don't want to be here, I want to stay in denial
    I see my demons, smiling in the gloom
    I have to face this thing or I will never leave this room
    See me, playing with the older boys
    In a house where my mama told me not to go
    They started hurting me, laughing as they held me down
    They put me in (?) awful sound

    All the scars on my body and soul
    All the trouble I have ever known
    All the fucked up things I'll say and do
    It all brings me closer to you

    To you
    I'm screaming in the mirror
    Looking in the eyes of you
    Yeah you
    I give my joy and my shame
    All the (?) and the pain
    To you

    Now I am addicted to pain
    Yeah I am addicted to everything
    Now I know what I have to do
    I have to kill the monsters from you
    For you
    I will forgive those damaged boys
    They did this all for (?) to you
    I have to fix this broken heart
    I need to be just like a father to you
    To you
    I have to fix this broken heart
    Or I'll be a sickness with you
    For you
    I'll will always be your champion
    I will always tear the monsters from you
    For you
    I give my joy and my shame
    All the?? and the pain
    To you

    Twisted, broken, and free
    I am twisted broken, angry and free
