Backstory:
Immediate Treatment was formed in the late 90s in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee. The band’s founders, Jason “Jaw” Williams and Sarah “Serenade” Serrano, were both working as paramedics, often finding solace in music during their off-hours. The two bonded over their love for music and their shared experiences in the field of emergency medical services, and this camaraderie led them to start a band. They were later joined by drummer Mark “MASH” Harkness and bassist Emily “EMT” Thompson. Their music draws from their healthcare background, with lyrics often touch on themes of healing, resilience, and camaraderie in the face of adversity.

“Scars Tell Stories”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse)
G D
In this world, we all carry,
Em C
Wounds that won’t forget.
G D
But every hurt, every worry,
Em C
Turns into strength, you bet.
(Chorus)
G D
Scars tell stories, they sing and shout,
Em C
Tales of battles, we fought throughout.
G D
They’re our badges, worn with pride,
Em C
Proof of journeys, through high and low tide.
(Verse)
G D
Look at my hands, see the marks,
Em C
Remember the times, they’ve healed hearts.
G D
Despite the pain, we carry on,
Em C
In the dark, we find the dawn.
(Chorus)
G D
Scars tell stories, they don’t hide,
Em C
They’re maps of places, where we’ve cried.
G D
They’re reminders of how we fought,
Em C
And of the strength, every battle bought.
(Bridge)
Em C
So wear your scars, let them be seen,
G D
They’re proof you’re tough, you’ve always been.
Em C
Every line, every shade,
G D
Tells your tale, don’t let it fade.
(Chorus)
G D
Scars tell stories, loud and clear,
Em C
Of pain we faced, of love we bear.
G D
They’re not just marks, on our skin,
Em C
They’re our badges, of battles we win.
