"Damaged Goods"

You could find someone prettier than me
You won't like all the talk you hear
What you get is what you see
Close your eyes, the picture's clear
Take out your heart, spend some time up close
I'm the one who will love you most

Let's put down the past, the shoulds, and coulds
Learn to love these damaged goods
I know we can do it

Old wounds and tattoos color our skin
The scariest scars lie deep within
Let's drag 'em out, show and tell
Throw 'em all away, walk right out of this hell
No more talk about the broken homes
The county wards, the screams and moans

Let's put down the past, the shoulds and coulds
Learn to love these damaged goods
I know we can do it

Leave all the trash in a Harley dust
I know in time we'll find the love and trust

Let's put down the past, the shoulds and coulds
Learn to love these damaged goods
I know we can do it
Learn to love...
