Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Ink in my veins, blood and the pain
Every line, every shade, drives me insane
A picture for eternity, fading like the past
Tattoos on my skin, the shadows they cast
(Chorus)
Tattoos on my skin, pain etched deep within
Tattoos on my skin, memories start to thin
Tattoos on my skin, stories fade away
Tattoos on my skin, but the scars always stay
(Verse 2)
Time won’t heal, but it tries to erase
Every tear, every fear, every damn trace
A canvas of agony, the needle’s cruel art
Tattoos on my skin, tearing me apart
(Chorus)
Tattoos on my skin, pain etched deep within
Tattoos on my skin, memories start to thin
Tattoos on my skin, stories fade away
Tattoos on my skin, but the scars always stay
(Bridge)
Tattoos on my skin, ghosts from the past
Tattoos on my skin, the pain that will last
Tattoos on my skin, forever in the ink
Tattoos on my skin, memories that sink
(Chorus)
Tattoos on my skin, pain etched deep within
Tattoos on my skin, memories start to thin
Tattoos on my skin, stories fade away
Tattoos on my skin, but the scars always stay
(Verse 3)
Needle to the flesh, carving out the truth
Every line a testament to a shattered youth
A picture for the ages, but time's cruel embrace
Tattoos on my skin, fading from my face
(Chorus)
Tattoos on my skin, pain etched deep within
Tattoos on my skin, memories start to thin
Tattoos on my skin, stories fade away
Tattoos on my skin, but the scars always stay
(Verse 4)
Every drop of ink, a moment in the pain
Battles that I fought, and the tears like rain
Stories told in silence, etched beneath the skin
Tattoos on my skin, the places I have been
(Chorus)
Tattoos on my skin, pain etched deep within
Tattoos on my skin, memories start to thin
Tattoos on my skin, stories fade away
Tattoos on my skin, but the scars always stay
(Bridge)
Tattoos on my skin, reflections of my soul
Tattoos on my skin, the parts that make me whole
Tattoos on my skin, reminders of the fight
Tattoos on my skin, through the darkest night
(Chorus)
Tattoos on my skin, pain etched deep within
Tattoos on my skin, memories start to thin
Tattoos on my skin, stories fade away
Tattoos on my skin, but the scars always stay
(Outro)
Tattoos on my skin, a map of all my fears
Tattoos on my skin, the journey of the years
Tattoos on my skin, a story left to tell
Tattoos on my skin, a life lived well
Tattoos on my skin, they may fade and blur
But the pain and the scars, they’ll always endure
