Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Mmm,

yeah)

They

don't

see

the

scars,

baby (

Ooh,

listen)

I’

m

walking

down

this

empty

street

tonight

The

city

lights

are

blinding

but

they

don’

t

feel

right

They

look

at

me

and

think

they

know

the

score

They

see

the

surface

but

they

don’

t

see

the

war

I

was

fighting

battles

that

I

couldn't

share

Building

up

my

kingdom

while

gasping

for

air

I

kept

my

head

down,

played

the

hand

I

held

Turning

all

the

hurt

into

the

stories

that

I've

spelled

They

were

not

there

when

the

nights

got

cold

They

were

not

there

when

I

was

losing

hold

They

see

the

glow

but

never

felt

the

fire

They

criticize

the

climb

but

never

walked

the

wire

They

were

not

there,

no,

they

don't

know

the

cost

They

count

the

winning,

but

they

never

saw

what

I

lost

They

were

not

there,

baby,

they

were

not

there

I

remember

crying

when

the

rent

was

due

Wondering

if

my

dreams

would

ever

make

it

through

They’

d

whisper

in

the

shadows,

talking

all

that

mess

Judging

my

progress,

yeah,

they

love

to

guess

But

you,

you

see

the

vision,

you

stayed

by

my

side

When

I

had

nowhere

left

to

run,

nowhere

left

to

hide

I

need

you

here,

let

the

world

keep

their

talk

We’

re

on

a

different

path,

let’

s

go

for

a

walk

They

were

not

there

when

the

nights

got

cold

They

were

not

there

when

I

was

losing

hold

They

see

the

glow

but

never

felt

the

fire

They

criticize

the

climb

but

never

walked

the

wire

They

were

not

there,

no,

they

don't

know

the

cost

They

count

the

winning,

but

they

never

saw

what

I

lost

They

were

not

there,

baby,

they

were

not

there

Oh,

let ‘

em

judge,

let ‘

em

stare

None

of

it

matters

when

you’

re

standing

right

there

I’

ve

got

the

armor

that

I

built

from

the

pain

I

found

the

sunshine

hidden

in

the

rain

Come

here,

let

me

hold

you

close

It’

s

the

simple

things

that

I’

m

needing

the

most

So

let

the

rumors

fly

like

autumn

leaves

I’

m

finding

peace

in

everything

I

believe

The

struggle

made

me,

it

shaped

every

line

Now

I’

m

steady

focused,

yeah,

I’

m

doing

fine

I’

m

stronger

for

the

silence,

wiser

for

the

test

Finally

putting

all

these

heavy

thoughts

to

rest

They

were

not

there

when

the

nights

got

cold

They

were

not

there

when

I

was

losing

hold

They

see

the

glow

but

never

felt

the

fire

They

criticize

the

climb

but

never

walked

the

wire

They

were

not

there,

no,

they

don't

know

the

cost

They

count

the

winning,

but

they

never

saw

what

I

lost

They

were

not

there,

baby,

they

were

not

there

They

were

not

there,

oh

no

I

know

my

truth,

yeah

I

need

you,

baby

They

were

not

there

Mmm,

yeah.
