Scars & Stitches (Guster)

Can you remember What the future held A little candy ring In a mystic ocean's shell They were anesthetized Slowly washed away Left all the poison in The sands in which I played I dont mind falling down And scraping up my knees Scars and stitches always fade And only strengthen me With my eyes as wide as pearls My only centerpiece Is taken like the dead man's urn And tossed into the sea Write me a letter And dot your i's and cross your t's Nothing was everything to me Under the monster's claws And in between his teeth Was the shadow and a silhouette Of what I thought I'd be I don't mind falling down And scraping up my knees Scars and stitches always fade And only strengthen me But with my eyes as wide as pearls My only centerpiece Is floating on the ocean's bed And floats there endlessly Well it's taken like the dead man's urn And tossed into the sea Can you remember What the future held A little candy ring In a mystic ocean's shell They were anesthetized Slowly washed away Left all the poison in The sands in which I played I don't mind falling down And scraping up my knees Scars and stitches always fade And only strengthen me With my eyes as wide as pearls My only centerpiece Is taken like the dead man's urn And tossed into the sea Write me a letter And dot your i's and cross your t's Nothing was everything to me Under the monster's claws And in between his teeth Was the shadow and a silhouette Of what I thought I'd be I don't mind falling down And scraping up my knees Scars and stitches always fade And only strengthen me But with my eyes as wide as pearls My only centerpiece Is floating on the ocean's bed And floats there endlessly Well it's taken like the dead man's urn And tossed into the sea
