[Instrumental Intro – Haunting Violin, Sad Piano] No time to breathe... No time for scars... [Verse 1 – Wounded, Rising Pressure] I learned to walk on shaking ground, Stitch myself up without a sound. Bite down hard, survive the day, Every time I mend, something gives way. One hand pressed against the wall, Count to ten and brace the fall. I almost feel my feet beneath me... Then everything breaks again. [Screamed Build – Heavy, Driving] EVERY WOUND PULLS AT MY SKIN! EVERY FRACTURE CAVES ME IN! NOTHING CLOSES, NOTHING MENDS! EVERY END JUST STARTS AGAIN! I DRAG MY BODY FROM THE DARK! ANOTHER BLOW, ANOTHER MARK! THE BLEEDING SLOWS, BUT NEVER GETS FAR... THERE'S NEVER ENOUGH TIME FOR SCARS! [Chorus – Powerful Melodic Metal Vocal] NO TIME FOR SCARS! I'M STILL BLEEDING FROM THE LAST ONE! NO TIME TO HEAL BEFORE ANOTHER ONE COMES! I DRAG MYSELF UP WHILE THE WHOLE WORLD FALLS APART! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HEAL WHEN THERE'S NO TIME FOR SCARS? [Post-Chorus – Violin Lead] No time... No time for scars. [Verse 2 – Bitter, Building] “You've made it through worse,” Yeah, I've heard that before. Like surviving the last means I'm ready for more. Every disaster should harden my skin? You don't grow stronger when the blade stays in. I spent everything just staying alive, Left pieces behind every time I survived. And the second I think I can finally stand... [Scream – Impact] IT HITS AGAIN! [Chorus – Powerful Melodic Metal Vocal] NO TIME FOR SCARS! I'M STILL BLEEDING FROM THE LAST ONE! NO TIME TO HEAL BEFORE ANOTHER ONE COMES! I DRAG MYSELF UP WHILE THE WHOLE WORLD FALLS APART! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HEAL WHEN THERE'S NO TIME FOR SCARS? [Instrumental – Anguished Violin Lead] [Bridge – Vulnerable, Building] Don't tell me I'm strong because I haven't died. Don't call it courage when I'm barely alive. You watched me crawl and called it standing tall. How many times can I survive the fall? How many times can you tell me... GET BACK UP?! [Breakdown – Full Scream] I DID! I GOT BACK UP EVERY FUCKING TIME! I CRAWLED! I FOUGHT! I GAVE EVERYTHING! BUT I CAN'T KEEP HEALING WHILE LIFE KEEPS BREAKING ME! KNOCK ME DOWN! GET BACK UP! KNOCK ME DOWN! GET BACK UP! KNOCK ME DOWN! GET BACK... I CAN'T! [Final Chorus – Emotional Melodic Climax] NO TIME FOR SCARS! I'M STILL BLEEDING FROM THE LAST ONE! NO TIME TO HEAL BEFORE ANOTHER ONE COMES! I GAVE EVERYTHING JUST TO MAKE IT THIS FAR! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HEAL WHEN THERE'S NO TIME FOR SCARS? NO TIME TO BREATHE! NO TIME TO MEND! JUST ENOUGH TO STAND... AND GET BROKEN AGAIN! [Outro – Exhausted Vocal, Haunting Violin] Just long enough to catch my breath. Never long enough to heal. I was almost standing... before it started again.
