Scarred Love
The Weeknd

Verse 1:

It's hard to look at you, and let you in
My heart's a battlefield, where trust is thin
You say you're different, but I've heard before
Same sweet words, then they shut the door

Pre-Chorus:

I can't deny the pull I feel inside
But the wounds they've left, they just can't hide
So if you really want to prove me wrong
You'll need to mend the places where I'm torn

Chorus:

Scarred love, it's what I know
Left me broken, left me cold
I crave the warmth that you could bring
But fear's a chain, I can't unhinge

Verse 2:

Your touch is gentle, but I flinch away
Haunted by ghosts of my yesterdays
I built these walls to protect my soul
But they're closing in, making me feel so alone

Pre-Chorus:

You promise healing, a brand new start
But the cautions etched into my heart
So if you're real, then take it slow
Show me love I've never known

Chorus:

Scarred love, it's what I know
Left me broken, left me cold
I crave the warmth that you could bring
But fear's a chain, I can't unhinge

Bridge:

Will you stay, when the nights get dark?
Hold me close, and light a spark?
Can you be the one who sets me free?
From the shadows that are haunting me?

Chorus:

Scarred love, it's what I know
Left me broken, left me cold
I crave the warmth that you could bring
But fear's a chain, I can't unhinge

Outro:

Maybe in time, we'll find a way
To turn the night into a brighter day
With patience, and tender care
Heal the scars and breathe fresh air
Scarred love, can we make it whole?
Together heal these fractured souls
