Scars & Stitches

Can you remember?
What the future held
A little candy ring
In a mystic oceans shell

They were all anesthetized
And slowly washed away
Left all the poison in
The sands in which I played

I don't mind falling down
And scraping up my knees
Scars and stitches always fade
And only strengthen me

With my eyes as wide as pearls
My only centerpiece
Is taken like a dead man's urn
And tossed into the sea

Write me like a letter
And dot your I's and cross you t's
Nothing was everything to me

Under the monsters claws
And in between his teeth
Was the shadow and a silhouette
Of what I'd thought I'd be?

I don't mind falling down
And scraping up my knees
Scars and stitches always fade
And only strengthen me

With my eyes as wide as pearls
My only centerpiece
Is floating on the ocean's bed
And floats there endlessly
Well it's taken like a dead mans urn
And tossed into the sea
