The Word Alive – Made This Way lyrics

[Verse 1]
Even when you thought you had me beat,
I still found the strength hidden deep within me.
And I can’t, can’t ever lose my voice,
I learned how to block, block out all of the noise.

[Pre-Chorus]
And I found my place in the empty spaces where my demons lay.
No I don’t believe that we as humans were meant to be afraid!

[Chorus]
I wear these scars!
I own my mistakes, you made me this way.
I wear these scars!
I know my mistakes, you can’t take that away.
I wear these scars! I wear these scars!
You can’t take that away, away!

[Verse 2]
It’s so strange that I ended up here,
And I never thought I’d make it through these years.

[Pre-Chorus]
And I found my place in the empty spaces where my demons lay.
No I don’t believe that we as humans were meant to be enslaved!

[Chorus]
I wear these scars!
I own my mistakes, you made me this way.
I wear these scars!
I know my mistakes, you can’t take that away.
I wear these scars! I wear these scars!
You can’t take that away!

[Bridge]
Most of these scars will fade away,
But nothing hides the fact that you were my mistake,
My mistake!

[Chorus]
I wear these scars!
I own my mistakes, you made me this way.
I wear these scars!
I know my mistakes, you can’t take that away.
I wear these scars! I wear these scars!
You can’t take that away!

[Outro]
I don’t believe that we’re defined by our mistakes (I wear these scares!),
And I can see that you think you’ve had all you can take (I wear these scares!).
I won’t believe that we’re defined by our mistakes (I wear these scares!),
I hope you see that, you’re better off this way!
