Like a Tattoo

Lyrics

He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
 Heavy with the burden of the truth
 And he spoke of his dreams
 Broken by the burden
 Broken by the burden of his youth
 ♪
 "14 years", he said
 "I couldn't look into the sun"
 She saw him laying at the end of my gun
 Hungry for life
 And thirsty for the distant river
 I remember his hands
 And the way the mountains looked
 The light shot diamonds from his eyes
 Hungry for life
 And thirsty for the distant river
 ♪
 Like the scar of age
 Written all over my face
 The war is still raging inside of me
 I still feel the chill
 As I reveal my shame to you
 I wear it like a tattoo
 I wear it like a tattoo
 I wear it like a tattoo
