-------------------------------
Watch these scars of mine as they grow,
Everyday another one shows
Slowly reshaping my look until I am,
Just an ugly washboard-worthless

Watch these scars of mine slowly fade
Everyday a little less seen but never truly gone
Forgotten dreams rolling like a red river down my arm
Another, silent scream

Give unto me your pain, your sorrow
Live until there is no tomorrow
Place around me a robe of sweet lies
While my mind slowly dies

Watch these scars of mine consume me
Watch these scars of mine subdue me
Will anyone ever save me
Will I ever be free

    You can be your own savior...I like the line 'forgotten dreams rolling like a red river down my arm'....fantastic.
