Dream Theater - Scarred (LP Version)

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
