every lasting scar

hard rain pours down on the concrete

seeps in deep below

cold screams of the city are

heard through the walls of every home

most seek for a deeper meaning

beyond their daily woes

most see nothing more than black clouds

it's all that they know

we become

our scars

if we let them

but all that we truly need

is out there for the taking

we scream every word

it's brought us together

every lasting scar

reminds us how we got here

we scream every word

it's brought us together

every lasting scar

shows what it's taken to be

who we are

some dwell into emptiness

the hurt they claim is real

been let down now it's meaningless

they find ways to conceal

never to be seen again

until it's all too late

and if we don't learn from it all

well repeat the same mistakes

we become

our scars

if we let them

but all that we truly need

is out there for the taking

every lasting scar

shows us what it's taken to be

who we are!

we scream every word

it's brought us together

every lasting scar

reminds us how we got here

we scream every word

it's brought us together

every lasting scar

shows what it's taken to be

who we are

we scream every word

it's brought us together

every lasting scar

shows what it's taken to be

who we are!
