Of course I can see the scars that are his eyes
I was not put in his life to save him from his demons
I am not a miracle worker nor do I want to be

Nobody can change what happened in someone's past
What we can do is listen to help ease a troubled mind
We all have our scars and we all have our demons

If we only had the ability to erase those scars and demons
But that is not for us to do because you see those make us who we are
To erase our past would mean to also erase all the good things

The pain we all go through does make us stronger and wiser
But they also teach us to cherish the good along with the bad
So you see if those scars and demons where not there we would not be
