Same Old Scar

Intro

Mmm... yeah...

I thought I was over you

Funny how one memory

Can bring everything back

Verse 1

I haven't heard your voice in months

But tonight it echoes in my head

I thought the silence healed enough

To let me finally move ahead

I learned to sleep without your name

Learned how to smile without the pain

But then I saw you standing there

And suddenly I'm seventeen again

Pre-Chorus

I thought the wound was closed

I thought the past was gone

But one look in your eyes

And everything came rushing on

I changed my life

I changed my ways

But some memories

Don't ever fade

Chorus

It's the same old scar

Same old place you left your mark

I thought I'd healed my heart

But you still know just where to start

It's the same old scar

Hidden underneath

I can say I'm doing fine

But you still hurt me every time

But I still feel the same old scar

Verse 2

Your favorite song came on tonight

And I almost called your name

Funny how a simple melody

Can bring me back to yesterday

I remember all the promises

The forever we believed

You left me with a thousand questions

And a heart that couldn't breathe

Pre-Chorus

I thought the wound was closed

I thought the past was gone

But one look in your eyes

And everything came rushing on

I changed my life

I changed my ways

But some memories

Don't ever fade

Chorus

It's the same old scar

Same old place you left your mark

I thought I'd healed my heart

But you still know just where to start

It's the same old scar

Hidden underneath

I can say I'm doing fine

But you still hurt me every time

But I still feel the same old scar

R&B Breakdown

To make me remember

You don't have to love me

To make my heart surrender

I know your footsteps

I know your eyes

I know the way you say goodbye

Bridge

Maybe healing doesn't mean

The pain completely disappears

I don't let it control my tears

So I'll carry this scar

Like a story I survived

You were once my heartbreak

But you don't get my life

Final Chorus

It's the same old scar

Same old place you left your mark

I thought I'd healed my heart

But you still know just where to start

It's the same old scar

Hidden underneath

I can say I'm doing fine

But you still hurt me every time

But I still feel the same old scar
