Scratches (feat. Story & Tune)

from Bible Belt Baby by Flamy Grant

lyrics

Had enough but I was thinking of it
Had enough but it was all I wanted
Fill me up because I need another
Fill my cup cause I can see the bottom

I will write it in my book of secrets
We collided, there’s a million pieces
It’s as delicate as dynamite
It’s a hell of a firefight

If we crawl away before the fire catches
We might escape with only superficial scratches
Oh... Oh...

What occurred after the cannons loaded
Vision blurred after the bomb exploded
Doesn’t hurt unless I try to remember
What’s the word for giving up forever

Found a soft place that isn’t hard yet
Found a fresh wound that hasn’t scarred yet
Let it bleed until my body heals it
Let me see ‘cause I can barely feel it

And we'll lay low until the danger passes
We could walk away with only superficial scratches
Oh... Oh...

Had enough but I was thinking of it, Had enough but it was all I wanted
Maybe one day I can cope without it, Maybe even stop thinking about it

But I wonder if our scars are perfect matches
Or if you got away with only superficial... scratches
Oh... Oh... Oh...
