Scars - 1927

Maybe I’m a little distant

Lost deep in poetry and rhyme

Sometimes love defies expression

Can’t find the words

Can’t get em out

Sometimes I wanna tell you how I’d be

Without you sleeping by my side tonight

I’d be counting scars

So here I am, no words to fight with

Naked in the open

Baring my soul for you to see

I know at times that

I frustrate you

I don’t mean to

Without your love

I’d rather die

Sometimes the world seems dark and grey

And I would wither without your shining light

I’d be counting scars

To live without your love would surely tear me apart

And I would soonr be a prisoner than a millionaire

And see you walk away

Yah I’d sooner be expired than alone
