Tattoos (on my skin)

(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
