Every Lasting Scar Lyrics

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 taken

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
We'll repeat the same mistakes

We become our scars
If we let them
But all that we truly need
Is out there for the taken

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 us what it's taken to be
who we are

lyrics from the booklet:

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 taken

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 We'll repeat the same mistakes

We become our scars If we let them But all that we truly need Is out there for the taken

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 us what it's taken to be who we are

You must have mistaken reading from the booklet because mine says "Is out there for the taking" instead of "Is out there for the taken".

When Jamey talks about this song on the DVD material that was included in the special edition of this album, he calls it a "hardcore upbeat anthem". He also says the song was inspired by a show that was called "probably the single biggest hardcore show of all time". It shows his feeling about hardcore.

"most seek for a deeper meaning beyond their daily woes most see nothing more than black clouds its all that they know" looking deeper into things rather than just taking them for what they are on the surface reading between the lines. its about rising above what brings us down because "if we dont learn from it all we'll repeat the same mistakes" and about how some use what brings them down as an excuse to stay down "but all that we truly need is out there for the taking".
