I lost my castle and my open door
And now my world is just a shattered floor
No signal cutting through the heavy static
A broken life so quiet and dramatic
Every single step was feeling heavy
But I kept holding steady, holding steady
They took away the things I used to hold
And left a story that was never told
Every wound has turned to gasoline
The greatest fire you have ever seen
I lost it all, but I am standing tall
Scars made me stronger
You break my world, but you can't break my soul
I take the pieces and I make them whole
Oh, I will scream it out where I belong
The heavy scars have only made me strong
Hey, oh
I was built inside the crushing pressure
And found a heavy and a hidden treasure
Every single fracture left a mark
But I am beating loud inside the dark
The greatest army is a single mind
Leaving the heavy sorrow far behind
I lost it all, but I am standing tall
Scars made me stronger
You break my world, but you can't break my soul
I take the pieces and I make them whole
Oh, I will scream it out where I belong
The heavy scars have only made me strong
Hey, oh
They looked at me like hope was just a lie
And waited for my fighting soul to die
But I kept pushing with a heavy cry
And found the courage looking at the sky
When every single thing you love is gone
You find the power just to carry on
So if you feel you never will survive
Just take my hand and keep the spark alive
You never know the strength inside your heart
Until your whole wide world is torn apart
Look at your greatest fears right in the eye
And tell the heavy darkness goodbye
I lost it all, but I am standing tall
Scars made me stronger
You break my world, but you can't break my soul
I take the pieces and I make them whole
Oh, I will scream it out where I belong
The heavy scars have only made me strong
Hey, oh
I am not broken (I am just alive)
I am myself (And I will always thrive)
The scars have made me strong
Fear nothing, step into the light
