Scarred

It's a tall order - a wall across my border
For a lost cause - keeping peace and order
But at this price - a cost I can't afford

I had my eyes open - sharpened all my senses
Yet I saw warnings - lowered my defences
It cannot last - it's different from the past

I must protect myself - I must stay on guard
I'm scarred
I must protect myself - I must maintain my guard
I'm scarred

So here's a rare confection to add to your collection
Using sweet stealth - that selfie isn't wealth
cnd you're not free to take a piece of me

I'm not candy you can sample and discard
You barely scratched my surface and I'm scarred
It's just too hard
I'm not candy you can sample and discard
You barely scratched my surface and I'm scarred
It's just too hard

I must protect myself - I must stay on guard
I'm scarred
I must protect myself - I must stay on guard
I'm scarred
I must protect myself - I must maintain my guard
I'm scarred
I'm scarred
I'm scarred
I'm scarred
