Xandria Cross - 700 Million Scars

I like to think I'm pretty tough
That I can take care of myself
I like to think I'm pretty rough around the edges
I can fit in with the bandits
You say what did you steal?
I stole a smile
What was it for?
To make myself feel better
I don't feel better
And now I feel bad yeah
What did you learn from countless days
Raining on everyone's parade
Turning your search into a raid
But still left empty handed?

I've got 700 million scars
Where are they? They're in my heart
I can see them in the dark
And feel them deep inside me
I've got 6,205 battles I've fought in my life
I take pictures of them with my mind
They flash before my eyes
700 million scars
Where are they? They're in my heart

I like to think I've learned my lesson
But then I go and I trip up again
Why? I'm asking why do I keep failing?
I'm at the tail end of my sanity
Volume turned way up in my head
Voices of shame, voices of dread
Scream at me you're better off dead
Look what you did
Darkness is slowly closing in
Sinking deep drowning in my sins
All alone there's no way I'll win

I've got 700 million scars
Where are they? They're in my heart
I can see them in the dark
And feel them deep inside me
I've got 6,205 battles I've fought in my life
I take pictures of them with my mind
They flash before my eyes
700 million scars
Where are they? They're in my heart

Oh I've tried 700 million times
To do this on my own
I can't do this on my own
No matter how I fight
In the end it's suicide can't go alone
So if you're listening
I'm finally giving in
So take my 700 million scars
And make them works of art

700 million scars
Where are they? They're in my heart
I can see them in the dark
And feel them deep inside me
6,205 battles I've fought in my life
I take pictures of them with my mind
They flash before my eyes
700 million scars
Where are they? They're in my heart
I can see them in the dark
And feel them deep inside me
6,205 battles I've fought in my life
I take pictures of them with my mind
They flash before my eyes
700 million scars

700 million scars
But you make them works of art
You make them works of art
