[Verse]
I walk these lonely halls and whisper
Echoes of my youth linger in the air
Chased by shadows of the boy I used to be
Insecurities are the cloak I wear
[Chorus]
Rejection carved its name in my heart
Bullying left its scars deep and wide
Seeking a love that will heal and mend
Someone who'll stand by this fragile side
[Verse 2]
In the rearview mirror there's a haunted face
Broken dreams and nights I couldn't cry
Finding solace in words I never spoke
Waiting for someone who'll see eye to eye
[Bridge]
I was the outcast in the schoolyard game
Felt my worth dissolve in their cruel laugh
Now I'm hoping love will rewrite those tales
Celebrate the man behind the past
[Chorus]
Rejection carved its name in my heart
Bullying left its scars deep and wide
Seeking a love that will heal and mend
Someone who'll stand by this fragile side
[Verse 3]
The night is long but the dawn will break
With a lover who's gentle in their touch
Looking for eyes that won't turn away
From the scars that tell my story so much
