---

Feel like I've been through a war and I survived

I feel lucky to be alive

I'm stepping over the casualties

I never let life get the best of me

I've been so close I've felt the heat

Speeding down a dead end street

Mistakes, I've made a few

Those mistakes can leave a mark on you

So many lost along the way

I made it through but there's a price to pay

I've got the scars

The scars, on me

There's dark clouds rolling into sight

There’ll be an empty seat in Hell tonight

There's a fire where there once was a spark

Swimming blindly in a sea of sharks

Nothing's gonna drag me down

A battle cry will be my last sound

You don't believe I've been through these things

I've got a road map on my skin

So many traps along the way

I made it through but there's a price to pay

I've got the scars

The scars, on me

There's nothin' written in the stars

But there's a jail without any bars

I hear something on the breeze

You've got to snake your own destiny

Chorus
