Scars and All
Love's Redemption: Embracing Imperfections in 'Scars and All'
Lyrics
I was living hard and fast
I was living a reckless and fast-paced lifestyle.
Running from my past
Avoiding or trying to escape from my past.
On the day that I ran into you
When I unexpectedly met you.
Life had taken its toll
Life had been difficult and challenging.
I was staggered by the blows
I was deeply affected by the hardships I faced.
I'd been through all I could go through
I had endured everything I could.
There was scars on my heart
There were emotional wounds from past relationships.
Where love had left its mark
Traces of pain and hurt from previous love experiences.
Wounds that I still carried from the fall
The emotional injuries I still carried.
Oh but your love built a bridge
Your love created connection where I had shut people out.
Where I'd put up a wall
I had defenses, but your love broke through them.
And you loved me scars and all
You accepted and cared for me despite my emotional scars.
With so many flaws
I had many imperfections and shortcomings.
I still wondered what you saw
I questioned what made you see value in me.
That made you believe in me
You had faith and confidence in me when I didn't.
I was no one's hero
I wasn't a hero or someone remarkable.
Didn't even come close
I didn't meet anyone's expectations.
But you saw something no one else could see
You perceived something special in me that others didn't.
There was scars on my heart
Remnants of pain from past relationships were evident.
Where love had left its mark
Signs of emotional hurt from previous experiences with love.
Wounds that I still carried from the fall
The lingering emotional wounds from past failures in love.
Oh, but your love built a bridge
Your love created a connection despite my barriers.
Where I'd put up a wall
Where I had closed myself off, your love broke through.
And you loved me scars and all
You accepted and cared for me despite my emotional scars.
You loved me scars and all
You loved me despite my emotional baggage and imperfections.
