That shame I felt for being a secret depressive
Pretending to be okay all day
Saying what I didn't feel, staying still
On the outside it never rained, inside there's a storm
Then it gets dyed with ink 90
And what hurt me the most is that no one noticed
Even if they did notice

I lost count of the nights I cried
No one knows what isn't seen
Because on those nights it's just the two of us
Without realizing it, I tattooed the scar
Today I look at it and know I'm still here
And I think about the nights we spent together

And it never dawned
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
It never dawned
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, hey

Thinking that everything is a mystery
And realizing it when it already got serious
When you're more afraid of yourself than the cemetery itself
Because the bigger the empire
The more it hurts the echo of being alone in captivity

And I locked myself up
Inside my own skin
And I stayed
In that hotel room
And I burned
Watching the fire and the smoke that won't let me see

I lost count of the nights I cried
No one knows what isn't seen
Because on those nights it's just the two of us
Without realizing it, I tattooed the scar
Today I look at it and know I'm still here
And I think about the nights we spent together

And it never dawned
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
It never dawned
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
And it never dawned
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
It never dawned
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
And it never dawned
