Battle Scars and War Wounds
  Look inside
  Your mind is an angry blur
  Red with anger
  Blue with ache
  Purple with bruises
  Battle scars and war wounds
  You hide them under smiles and laughter
  You can’t let anyone in
  It’s a lonely life
  You think you’re the only one
  And if someone knew,
  You’d be so ashamed
  Ashamed of your red and purple and blue mixed up mind
  For your sake,
  Let someone in
  You’re alone now
  And it’s killing you, I can tell
  Little do you know
  Little do you understand
  You’re not alone
  You see the colors
  So do they
  You’re blinded by the colors
  So are they
  And they’re so ashamed
  Because they think they’re the only ones
