Papercut Lyrics by Safe Bet

What’s Left of This

2017

[Verse 1]
Lately, it's been feeling like my bones are collapsing
And all this heartache is weighing me down
I thought that this would be over by now
(I thought that this would be over)
But you know it seems that I will
I'll never wash you off of me
[Chorus]
You're just like a scar or a bad tattoo
I can cover you up, but there will always be a memory of you
(There will always be a memory of you)
[Verse 2]
It's hard to keep my composure when I still don't have closure
I'm breaking down into little tiny pieces
And faking a smile hoping someone believes it
This situation has me on a steady decline
And it digs into me like a thorn in my side
Well, you know it seems that I will
I'll never wash you off of me
[Chorus]
You're just like a scar or a bad tattoo
I can cover you up, but there will always be a memory of you
[Bridge]
It hurts just like a papercut
Your love just wasn't deep enough
It only scratched the surface
I guess I wasn’t worthy of your
Time heals all wounds, they say
So why won't these bruises go away?
'Cause it's been another twenty months
And I'm still just so in love
You're still all I'm thinking of to this day
I wish you would've stayed
