Scars Remain

No... this can't be happening

Trying to forget, what I've become

Why? I fight with all my strength

But still the scars remain

Still they remain...

Searching for something that I will never find

How... was I so blind?

Another life is washed away

Nothing is left but pain

There is no change

Time heals nothing

Scars!

Scars remain

Scars remain

Scars remain

Time heals nothing

Pull me from the gutter, away from all the lies

I cannot face reality, the fear that grows inside

My heart is rising, and soon it will turn black

Once I step across that line there's no way to turn back

Rolling in the vomit, the blood and the filth

Blinded by the alcohol, the drugs, and the pills

I fight another battle, the violence begins

The enemy is me, so how can I win?

Another life is washed away

Nothing exists but pain

There is no change

Time heals nothing

Scars!

Scars remain

Scars remain

Scars remain

Time heals nothing

Rise out from the shadow

Leave the old self behind

Within lies the strength

To triumph, above all

Above!

Rise!
