Lyrics + translation · letras.mus.br

🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • And I won't tell 'em your name
  • Scars are souvenirs you never lose
  • The past is never far
  • Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?

Echo the hook

  • I won't tell 'em your name
  • I won't tell 'em your name
  • Ow
won'ttellname
