Scars & Stiches - Guster

Can you remember?

What the future held

A little candy ring

And a mystic oceans shell

But they were all anesthetized

And slowly washed away

Left all the poison in the sands in which I played

I don’t mind falling down and scraping up my knees

Scars and stitches always fade and only strengthen me

With my eyes as wide as pearls

My only centerpiece

Is taken like a dead mans urn and tossed into the sea

Write me like a letter

And dot your I’s and cross you T’s

Nothing was everything to me

Under the monsters claws and in between his teeth

Was the shadow and a silhouette of what I’d thought I’d be?

I don’t mind falling down and scraping up my knees

Scars and stitches always fade and only strengthen me

But with my eyes as wide as pearls

My only centerpiece

Is floating on the ocean’s bed and floats there endlessly

Well it’s taken like a dead mans urn and tossed into the sea
