"Scar" lyrics

"Scar"

Got me wishing god would show me the away
Show me heaven maybe just for a day
I'm feeling something that I don't understand
Can you help me be a better man?

Mother mother, can you show me the way
Can you light a tunnel to light of day
I'm sick of dealing with the problems at hand
Can you help me be a better man?

There's no need to run and hide
When the world leaves a scar
There's no need to say goodbye
When the world leaves a scar
It's a painful thing to try
Grit your teeth another time
When the world leaves a scar you
When the world leaves a scar

When the world leaves a scar

Sister Lauren, don't you fade away?
Sister Lauren, love you all the way
I'm feeling hopeful that you'll show a man
How to love someone as true as you can

Brother brother, we speak day to day
You're the blueprint for a future that's paved
My wishful thinking might not go as we planned
But I'll help you be a better man

There's no need to run and hide
When the world leaves a scar
There's no need to say goodbye
When the world leaves a scar
It's a painful thing to try
Grit your teeth another time
When the world leaves a scar you
When the world leaves a scar

Break down the door
There's something more
Don't be afraid that in the end
You'll have nothing
Break down the door
There's something more
Don't be afraid that in the end
You'll have nothing
Break down the door
Break down the door
Ooh...

Yeah...
Mother mother...
Yeah...
Sister sister...
Yeah... ooh...
Brother brother...
When the world leaves a scar on you
Mother mother...
When the world leaves a scar
Sister sister...
When the world leaves a scar
Brother brother...
When the world leaves a scar
When the world leaves a scar on you
