She came from a small town, Hypnotized by the big city life. She came looking for a peice of action, All She got was the big city life. She tried to convince herself, This was leading somewhere. Just like on the last day of school, They were gone by the time she got there.
She′s like "Wooooah" I finally found my place. And I′m like "Wooooah" This Girl can′t keep them boys away. And she say′s "Nooo", See I used to have dreams. But I cashed in something long ago, That I can′t redeem.
Once you are, just another cut away, Now your scarred, And these scars won′t fade. I still know, You don′t get something for nothing, Without giving up your soul.
She got the get it look With the drink in her hand. And she feels like no one. She tries to put the past behind her, But she still owes him. If I ever get out of this place, Things will be different. She still hides at the bottom of the bottle, And cries when she looks in the mirror.
She′s like "Wooooh" Am I Looking At Myself And I′m like "Wooooah" I don′t see nobody else And she say′s "Nooo", That′s the price I paid And it′ll cost me my life just to get out of the game.
Once you are, just another cut away, Now your scarred, And these scars won′t fade. I still know, You don′t get something for nothing, Without giving up your soul.
[Instrumental]
Once you are, just another cut away, Now your scarred, And these scars won′t fade. I still know, You don′t get something for nothing, Without giving up your soul. [x2]
To Rise, To Fall. To Hurt, To Hate. To Want, To Wait. To Heal, To Save.
Can′t hear it we fear it awareness won′t come near it
Distractive Reactive Disguised in spite of time
I never bared my emotion My passion always strong I never lost my devotion but somewhere fate went wrong
Can′t let them rape me again Your venom′s not family here won′t let them fill me with fatalistic remedies
What if the rest of the world was hopelessly blinded by fear? Where would my sanctity live? Suddenly nobody cares.
It′s never enough You′re wasting your time Isn′t there something I could say? You don′t understand You′re closing me out How can we live our lives this way?
You tell me I′m wrong I′m risking my life Still, I have nothing in return I show you my hands You don′t see the scars Maybe you′ll leave me here to burn.
What if the rest of the world was hopelessly drowning in vain? Where would our self pity run? Suddenly everyone cares.
Blood...Heal me Fear...Change me Belief will always save me Blood...Swearing Fear...Staring Conviction made aware
Give up on misery Turn your back on dissent Leave their distrust behind Wash your hands of regret
Do you feel you don′t know me anymore? And do you feel I′m afraid of your love? And how come you don′t want me asking? And how come my heart′s not invited? You say you want everyone happy Well, we′re not laughing.
And how come you don′t understand me? And how come I don′t understand you? Thirty years say we′re in this together So open your eyes.
People in prayer for me everyone there for me Sometimes I feel I should face this alone My soul exposed It calms me to know that I won′t
Blood...Heal me Fear...Change me Belief will always save me Blood...Swearing Fear...Staring Conviction made aware
Give up on misery Turn your back on dissent Leave their distrust behind Wash your hands of regret
Blood...Heal me Fear...Change me Belief will always save me Blood...Swearing Fear...Staring Conviction made aware
Learning from misery Staring back at dissent Leaving distrust behind I′m inspired and content
