Glued Mess Underneath
These scars
Criss cross my heart
A target it seems
Sonething to aim at
Break apart
I only show my outer skin
The old tattoo
Gruff exterior
To keep at bay
Those that want a closee look
There's been a few heartaches
On this road taken
Some songs on the radio
Bring back the echoes
Sometimes a grimace
Like broken glass
My life shattered
Far too many pieces
To really put back together
Just a glued mess underneath
Criss cross my heart
A target it seems
Sonething to aim at
Break apart
I only show my outer skin
The old tattoo
Gruff exterior
To keep at bay
Those that want a closee look
There's been a few heartaches
On this road taken
Some songs on the radio
Bring back the echoes
Sometimes a grimace
Like broken glass
My life shattered
Far too many pieces
To really put back together
Just a glued mess underneath
