My tattoo tears burn when you're near
That's why I'm acting distant
And you won't see me reminiscing, oh no

In your rain, I won't drown
I can reign on my own
I'ma wear your crown, throw a king off his throne
I had enough, turned off
Out of love, lost trust
On the run, what pain
I'm feeling, I'd rather

Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (tattoo tears)
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (I'd rather)
Tattoo tears than cry for you (tears)
Tattoo tears (tears)
I can't see them falling down my face, oh, yeah
I can't see them falling down my face, oh I'd rather
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (tattoo tears)
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears

We linked up, broke off, inked up
Your love on my skin carved your own self in
You think I'll never be without you again
These scars will never cease to exist
But I won't ever fill 'em, fill 'em in
'Cause they gone make me badder in the end

In your rain, I won't drown
I can reign on my own
I'm a queen, take your crown, throw a king off his throne
I had enough, turned off
Out of love, lost trust
On the run, what pain
I'm feeling, I'd rather

Tattoo tears, than cry for you
Tattoo tears
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (tattoo tears)
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (I'd rather)
Tattoo tears than cry for you (tears)
Tattoo tears (tears)
I can't see them falling down my face, oh, yeah
I can't see them falling down my face, oh I'd rather
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (tattoo tears)
Tattoo tears than cry for you
Tattoo tears (tears, tears)

My skies fade back to blue
And my eyes won't cry for you
