Lyrics
More rainbow scars to drown your sorrows
Another lover has become a friend
That good old spark's run out of tomorrows
A candle never lit is never burnt
And if you're never loved, you'll never hurt
Never asking if it was worth it
In the end
CHORUS
Painted girl
Your colors block you from the world
Your shell protects the fragile pearl
That glows within
Painted child
A façade so strong and wild
Still the one that laughed and smiled
The one you've always been
The piercing pain is somehow relieving
Unlike the heart, the flesh will mend
Too much doubt to begin believing
A struggle's senseless when we're ashes to dirt
And if you're never loved you'll never hurt
Never asking if it was worth it
In the end
CHORUS
Don't give up on love
Wounds heal, tears subside
Don't give up on love
You're beautiful inside
It's just a matter of time
CHORUS
