Rough hands hold gentle dreams
Bruised feelings can't be unseen
Armor worn but heart still beats
Love's a battle bruised by heat
Past wounds still bleed inside
Soul exposed but can't hide
Struggles carve lines deep
Fightin' just to keep the leap
Steel outside soft core
Pain won't knock me to the floor
Love scarred but love pure
Fightin' every day for sure
Shadowed past won't define
Tender heart's my solid line
Walls high pain digs deep
Eyes on future not the weep
Scars tell tales of love lost
Wear 'em proud hard the cost
Heart's open never closed
Love's the fight I chose
Steel outside soft core
Pain won't knock me to the floor
Love scarred but love pure
Fightin' every day for sure
