Don't feel nothing, just old scars
Toughening up around my heart.

That's the love I want. I want love.

After everyting I've ever learned.
Me, I carry too much baggage.
Oh man, I've seen so much traffic.

So bring it on, I've been bruised.

Don't give me love that's clean and smooth.

I'm ready for the rougher stuff.
