Take a glance through the glass
Reminisce through your past
From hospital beds
To losing count of your meds
Doctors fail to flip the script
One more pill to try and fix
Problems caused by other pills
Though the next one swears they will
After all you've been through to do no harm
Just as it is written in the scars upon your arm
Fortified in crimson and ink
You don't care what others think
You've been remade through resiliency
Pulling smiles through all the pain
Despite how nights haunt you still
Words slipping from pages
Through veins trauma rages
No one knows
You'll never tell
Forged by fire from hell
You dust yourself off
As if you never fell
After all you've been through to do no harm
Just as it is written in the scars upon your arm
Fortified in crimson and ink
You don't care what others think
You've been remade through resiliency
You don't care what others think
You've been remade through resiliency
