White Lines

With age comes wisdom
And just a few extra scars
Deep like the white lines
That frame this soul of mine

I lie awake just dreaming
That things could be easy
But that doesn’t make things right
It’s just a different kind of fight

They say that love’s a battle now –
But take my sword now
For I’m tired of fighting
This world’s just slightly
Too small for these thoughts of mine

Sometimes it feels like
These scars are on display
To fend the world away
From just another white line

And sometimes I know
That’s just me feeling low
This swords getting heavy
Can’t take another blow

They say that love’s a battle now –
So take my sword now
For I’m tired of fighting
This world’s just slightly
Too small for these thoughts of mine

They say that love’s a battle now
