The clock ticks slow, the shadows grow
On walls where memories used to glow
I trace the lines where sorrow flowed
And find the seeds that sorrow sowed
These scars of time, they tell my tale
Of battles lost and ships that sailed
Of love that bloomed and love that failed
Yet through it all, I have prevailed
The wounds remain, but so do I
Beneath the same unbroken sky
I learned to heal, I learned to try
These scars of time will never lie
