Today I find my heart again
Which I had hidden inside a box
Next to affection and a manual of how to become a man
I had such a bad time looking around
Being so lost, out of control
Close to danger, without balance and losing my way
And today I ask myself why
I liked myself so little, and I shut myself off
Going round and round in circles about something that I made up 1
And I have a million scars to think about
I'm a shield, I'm over-sensitive, a barrier to the heart
And I don't like having been so sad
Because of paranoias I made those wounds inside me
How great a release I feel today
Upon, little by little, looking through my heart
Which is stronger, it knows what it wants and it doesn't hide away anymore
How great it is to see myself without all of the previous (problems)
Feeling calm, being what I am
Harmless, serene, kind and caring
And today I ask myself why
I liked myself so little, and I shut myself off
Going round and round in circles about something that I made up
And I have a million scars to think about
I'm a shield, I'm over-sensitive, a barrier to the heart
And I don't like having been so sad
Because of paranoias I made those wounds inside me
And I have a million scars to think about
I'm a shield, I'm over-sensitive, a barrier to the heart
And I don't like having been so sad
Because of paranoias I made those wounds inside me
Inside me (x4)
A million scars
