Don’t you just wish emotional scars would vanish
Vanish as quickly as a bruise or physical scar
Turn to the colours of a rainbow
And back then to skin colour
No sign of damage.
The emotional scars never seem to fade
Words of anger
Words that were said
Words that were witheld
Words you wish you has said
Turn over and over in your head
Replay set … over and over again
No rainbow colours just black and white scenes
Vivid in the minds eye
Wishing they would distort like a faulty TV
Reaching for the remote wanting the off button.
We made it through a voice tells us
Yeh we made it through but with invisible scars
That very few see or want to see
We are enclosed in this tv
We are replaying the programme
Don’t we just wish these emotional scars would vanish

Don’t you just wish emotional scars would vanish
Vanish as quickly as a bruise or physical scar
Turn to the colours of a rainbow
And back then to skin colour
No sign of damage.
The emotional scars never seem to fade
Words of anger
Words that were said
Words that were witheld
Words you wish you has said
Turn over and over in your head
Replay set … over and over again
No rainbow colours just black and white scenes
Vivid in the minds eye
Wishing they would distort like a faulty TV
Reaching for the remote wanting the off button.
We made it through a voice tells us
Yeh we made it through but with invisible scars
That very few see or want to see
We are enclosed in this tv
We are replaying the programme
Don’t we just wish these emotional scars would vanish
