I’ve been dumb and so heartsick
Dumb enough to fall
For all of my heart’s tricks
Strike me up and watch me burn
For secrets now I hide
For lessons now I’ve learned
Will you love me
After where I’ve been
Will you hold me
And not feel my skin
Can you see me
Through my scars
Will you love me
And my secondhand heart
I tried hard enough to know
I wouldn’t let you in
I couldn’t let you go
So strike me up and watch me burn
For secrets we all hide
For lessons we’ve all learned
Will you love me
After where I’ve been
Will you hold me
And not feel my skin
Can you see me
Through my scars
Will you love me
And my secondhand heart
I have tried so many times
To find reasons why
I’m in your sights
When all you have in me
Is that we’re happy
Is that enough
To keep me in your mind
Won’t you love me
After where I’ve been
Won’t you hold me
And not feel my skin
Please just see me
Through my scars
Will you love me
And my secondhand heart
