Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On my skin I still feel the touch of scar that you left
But you ain't here, you ain't here
And every mark is a memory, there's no escaping
Cut deep within, deep within
[PreChorus]
Everything, every feeling drags me down
I lost my grip, I'd never let go of you now
[Chorus]
I know drinking could not save me, made me mad and left me angry
Took the best of what you gave me, went and left me with a heart
That was only barely beating, I surrender, I'm retreating
Back to where your hands are healing, baby, hold me in your arms
Till your fingerprints, they leave a scar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar
[Verse 2]
Had too much, still I pour them down until I'm shaking
You're in my veins, still in my veins
I'm screaming out and all this pain is evidence I'm breaking
I've given in, given in
[PreChorus]
I got so good at saying goodbye in a crowd
I lost my grip, I'd never let go of you now
[Chorus]
I know drinking could not save me, made me mad and left me angry
Took the best of what you gave me, went and left me with a heart
That was only barely beating, I surrender, I'm retreating
Back to where your hands are healing, baby, hold me in your arms
Till your fingerprints, they leave a scar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar, a-a-ar, oh-oh
[Chorus]
I know drinking could not save me, made me mad and left me angry
Took the best of what you gave me, went and left me with a heart
That was only barely beating, I surrender, I'm retreating
Back to where your hands are healing, baby, hold me in your arms
Till your fingerprints, they leave a scar
