You're peeling the pain from your canvas 
 The face you made with your brush 
 You kill your creation in anger 
 Cruelty that once was your crush 
 The painting is peeled and your darling dead 
 The secret of love turns its hideous head 
 Written in scars - cuts wide and deep 
 Written in stars - dark light in your sleep 
    Lost count of the wars - You lost count of the score 
 Returned to the trenches each time to fight more 
 Thought you escaped your nightmare - your curse 
 To find you were waking from one to a worse 
 Written in scars - cuts wide and deep 
 Written in stars - dark light in your sleep   
 It's written in scars now - your cuts wide and deep 
 It's written in stars now - dark light in your sleep 
 In memory of her brittle heart 
 Amused - abused - accursed 
 Your aquarelle - your living hell 
 It's right here on Earth   
 Erase - every trace 
 Of feelings and pain 
 Find your peace 
 When your lips stop saying her name   
 It's written in scars now - your cuts wide and deep 
 It's written in stars now - dark light in your sleep 
 In memory of her brittle heart 
 Amused - abused - accursed 
 You live to tell - You're leaving hell 
 It's night here on Earth
