Scars from Chords by The Out Crowd

You wouldn't know it if you saw her
But if you took the time to watch her
You would notice someone falling
From the inside out
You would struggle to believe her
She's a fairytale deceiver
And she doesn't want to be here
In her princess gown

She's a pretty masquerade queen
Paper feelings from a magazine
It's a surface kind of love thing
That her heart can't take
Give her props for all the hard work
Painted courage covered make up
One true tear and it would wash off
But there are worse games to play

When the doors close
It all becomes real
The truth comes out like water as she sleeps

She is breaking like a promise
She is crying like a song
She is crashing like addict
She is falling like a star
But her eyes never waver
Her resolve bears ever strong
Her smile never falters
She’s hidden all the scars
Whoa oh oh

He'd give his heart away to reach her
He hears her heart sounds getting weaker
And he's got just the heart to make her
Pick the beat up off the ground
Once she saw him she would notice
That he was born so she could open up
Leave her armor she won't speak of
Still she screams so loud

So she stays closed
‘Cause the honesty's too real
She'd rather run away then learn to feel

She is breaking like a promise
She is crying like a song
She is crashing like addict
She is falling like a star
But her eyes never waver
Her resolve bears ever strong
Her smile never falters
She’s hidden all the scars
Whoa oh oh

If only she could breathe him in
If only he could stick it out
Beyond shadows they would stand
And two stars could change the world
But a planetary shift
Is way too much to risk
This far from home

She is breaking like a promise
She is crying like a song
She is crashing like addict
She is falling like a star
But her eyes never waver
Her resolve bears ever strong
Her smile never falters
She’s hidden all the scars
Whoa oh oh
Mmm mm mm
