Scars of the World

Flags rise high like blades in the sky Empty promises waiting to die Cold speeches dressed as reason and law But blood writes the truth we saw Cities burn beneath fire and steel Children learn what fear can feel Heroes fall with no name to save Another body, another grave Who feeds on pain? Who fuels the flame? From the towers of power We're all the same SCARS OF THE WORLD! Burning in our eyes! SCARS OF THE WORLD! Another thousand lies! SCARS OF THE WORLD! No one hears the cries! SCARS OF THE WORLD! Watch another future die! Maps are drawn with lines of hate History trapped inside its fate Minds conditioned to obey While the world decays away Missiles streak across the night Preaching peace through sights and fire Only echoes still remain Of profit built on human pain Who pulls the strings? Who starts the wars? The ones who suffer Are never yours SCARS OF THE WORLD! Burning in our eyes! SCARS OF THE WORLD! Another thousand lies! SCARS OF THE WORLD! No one hears the cries! SCARS OF THE WORLD! Watch another future die! When the last siren fades away Will anyone remember names? Or will the ashes tell the story Of another war with no glory? Breakdown Fire! Ashes! Smoke fills the sky! No more heroes! No more lies! Fire! Ashes! Nothing survives! The scars remain... The scars survive! (Guitar Solo) SCARS OF THE WORLD! Burning in our eyes! SCARS OF THE WORLD! Another thousand lies! SCARS OF THE WORLD! No one hears the cries! SCARS OF THE WORLD! Watch another future die! Scars of the world... Scars of the world... Still burning...
