Verse 1
These are the scars that I am forced to live with
These are the scars that mark me as a misfit
As I run from your perceptions
I’m fighting my reflection
And I wonder what you’d understand

Pre chorus
About staying strong
When you fought so long
In a world that tells you
You don’t belong
Living in the shadow of all your flaws
Where it’s hard to be seen for who you are

Chorus
So label me
Call me by my pain
That’s not my name
That’s not my name
I’m so much more than your throw away
That’s not my name
That’s not my name

Verse 2
These are the scars that I am forced to live with
So pick me apart
I won’t fit the mold that you fit
But there’s a warrior inside me
That you played a part in building because you made me understand

About staying strong when you fought so long
In a world that tells you
You don’t belong
Living in the shadow of all your flaws
Where it’s hard to be seen for who you are

Bridge
About staying strong when you fought so long
In a world that tells you
You don’t belong
You won’t sentence me
Your words are dead to me
I know my suffering is not my identity
