Scar Tissue é uma música da banda Red Hot Chili Peppers, que fala sobre os problemas e a recuperação de Anthony Kiedis do vício em drogas. Segundo Kiedis, a letra reflete a beleza das pessoas imperfeitas e a forma como elas compartilham suas experiências dolorosas para se curarem. O título Scar Tissue simboliza essas feridas abertas que Kiedis tinha por dentro e por fora.
