All Marks Fade...

Verse 1
I once thought
That I would always love you
Love remained like an internal bruise
It turns out I was only half right
Love runs deep and it's hard to change
But I'm moving on all the same
I'm forgetting
The anguish I used to feel.

Chorus
Painful like a scar deep within
But fading like a birthmark on my skin
I'll admit what's true
You left a mark on my heart
But all marks fade
And yours will too

Verse 2
I once thought
That I would never love again
I felt too broken for another
It turns out I was only half right
I'd rather be single all my life
Than surrender myself to your knife
To be alone
Would not be as lonely.

Chorus
Painful like a scar deep within
But fading like a birthmark on my skin
I'll admit what's true
You left a mark on my heart
But all marks fade
And yours will too

Verse 3
One day I'll think
That love isn't the sole happiness
The romantic in me was silenced
It turns out that you were never right
Being alone isn't loneliness
and I'm not alone, with friends I am blessed
I hope that you realise
That love isn't all there is.

Chorus
Painful like a scar deep within
But fading like a birthmark on my skin
I'll admit what's true
You left a mark on my heart
But all marks fade
And yours will too

Yours will too
I'll forget the scars
because yours will too...
