Scars To Prove It Lyrics

I've been told I make it look easy

I've been the golden girl, on a pedestal,

I've been everybody's rising star

But those red lipstick smiles never came naturally

And I never thought my heels or heart would make it this far

Cause day by day 

I try to be perfect

But no one sees

What's under the surface

I built a home

Of sticks and stones and you can't tell

How well I know

The long road in and out of hell

Cause where I've been

You better have thick skin

Yeah I kept moving through 

The bullets and the bruises

And I got the scars to prove it 

I've learned to find comfort when it's storming

Crashing waves, and hurricanes, they just feed my soul

And when that sun breaks through without a warning

It reminds me that theres another day to grow

Those ups and downs

I hardly notice

I'm getting good at dodging 

What they're throwing

I built a home

Of sticks and stones and you can't tell

How well I know

The long road in and out of hell

Cause where I've been

You better have thick skin

Yeah I kept moving through 

The bullets and the bruises

And I got the scars to prove it 

I built a home

Of sticks and stones and you can't tell

How well I know

The long road in and out of hell

Cause where I've been

You better have thick skin

Yeah I kept moving through 

The bullets and the bruises

And I got the scars to prove it
