Read My Scars Lyrics

My cry echoes on a naked wall
Cold like a crystal
Numbered hours creeping
Insanity strangles reality...

Weakened, crushed, formed
New dimensions arise
My mind becomes a fortress
Inpregnable, shut

The walls between us make the public safe...

Read my scars...see why I'm like that
Read my scars...and don't ask me why

Whisper turns into a scream
Light would burn my skin
My legs, useless instruments
My eyes, almost blind

See the sunny world outside
Ignorant of the fact
Faking shock, forgetting fast
Freedom is a gift...

My cry echoes on a naked wall
Cold like a crystal
Numbered hours creeping
Insanity strangles reality...

The walls between us make the public safe...
Read my scars...see why I'm like that
Read my scars...and don't ask me why

The walls between us make the public safe...

Read my scars...see why I'm like that
Read my scars...and don't ask me why

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

12y ago

an imprisoned individual whose crimes were triggered by abuse suffered earlier in life.

"the walls between us make the public feel safe"

Society doesn't want to hear about the reasons for crime, it just wants to inflict punishment for perceived depravity and deformity of character.
