[Verse 1]
You came in bruised
I came in worse
Two cracked hearts
Carrying the curse
We learned the shape
Of leaving first
Say "I'm fine"
Then bite the hurt
Your past like glass
In your sleeve
My old ghosts
Still know my name
We talked in walls
Then slammed the door
Still came back
For one more try
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know how
We got this far
All these cuts
Still call us hard
But if you fall
I'll meet you there
Hands up, hands raw
I can swear
[Chorus]
We’re scarred but standing
Scarred but standing
I still choose you
I still choose you
Break the wall down
Say what’s true
Love like this
Got work to do
We’re scarred but standing
Scarred but standing
Try again
Try again
[Verse 2]
You with the tears
Behind your grin
Me with the fear
That love won’t win
Old names still echo
When it gets dark
We both got marks
Right on the heart
But you held mine
When I shook
I saw your pain
And took a look
Not every wound
Was meant to stay
Some need touch
Some need time
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know how
We got this far
All these cuts
Still call us hard
But if you fall
I'll meet you there
Hands up, hands raw
I can swear
[Chorus]
We’re scarred but standing
Scarred but standing
I still choose you
I still choose you
Break the wall down
Say what’s true
Love like this
Got work to do
We’re scarred but standing
Scarred but standing
Try again
Try again
[Bridge]
[Half-time]
Clean up the ash
Let it fall
I won’t run
I’ve seen it all
Say the hard part
Say my name
Forgive the strike
Forgive the flame
If love is a fight
Then fight fair
No more running
No more scared
Take my hand
Take this chance
We can heal
If we both advance
[Final Chorus]
We’re scarred but standing
Scarred but standing
I still choose you
I still choose you
Break the wall down
Say what’s true
Love like this
Got work to do
We’re scarred but standing
Scarred but standing
Try again
Try again
Try again
Try again
This love’s worth fighting for
