about

"These lines tell a story..." Over time, life leaves its marks. It's nothing to hide but something to celebrate. Karen Morand and award winning blues artist, Suzie Vinnick do just that in Beautiful Scars reflecting on life lived and the beauty in the broken. Vinnick adds her unmistakably rich voice to the track.

lyrics

Beautiful Scars
Things are tough – you are tougher
The storm is rough – you’re made for rougher
Courage my love – you won’t suffer much longer
It’s always darkest before it’s brighter
The night is strong but you are mightier
It’s time to wake up that prize fighter - Rise up, rise up!
These line tell a story of who you are

You’ll bend but not break - you’ll heal with scars
Your beautiful scars
Beautiful scars

They tried to break you - you got stronger
You can endure – but how much longer?
Deep inside there’s a hunger – a fire that will not burn out!
You are outnumbered but not alone
You are fearless to the bone
On the Solid Rock you build your home - no one can tear you down
Beautiful Scars
Things are tough – you are tougher
The storm is rough – you’re made for rougher
Courage my love – you won’t suffer much longer
It’s always darkest before it’s brighter
The night is strong but you are mightier
It’s time to wake up that prize fighter - Rise up, rise up!
These line tell a story of who you are
You’ll bend but not break - you’ll heal with scars
Your beautiful scars
Beautiful scars
They tried to break you - you got stronger
You can endure – but how much longer?
Deep inside there’s a hunger – a fire that will not burn out!
You are outnumbered but not alone
You are fearless to the bone
On the Solid Rock you build your home - no one can tear you down

These lines tell a story of who you are
You’ll bend but not break - you’ll heal with scars
Your beautiful scars
Beautiful scars

I still believe
Roll up my sleeves
The battles on
I’ve just begun to embrace my beautiful scars
