Album Version
Can you remember what the future held?
A little candy ring and a mystic ocean's shell
But they were anaesthetized and slowly washed away
And left all the poison in the sand 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
But dot your i's
And cross your t's
Nothing was everything to me

But 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

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

Thanks to the always trusty legendary conguero Brian Rosenworcel for clarifying the songwriting credits.
