Battle Scars (Acoustic)
All your words run through my head
I sit and recount all the things that you said
Contemplating right and wrong
Separating broken promises from deeds done
All the while I smile, shake my head
You dare not beat a path, you follow them instead
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
Bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
At least I know, I'll have stories and battle scars to show
If only you could hear
The things they say about you when you're not near
They see us all as sheep
Just another problem solved to keep their lives sweet
And all the while they laugh and count their bread
You dare not beat a path, you follow them instead
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
At least I know, I'll have stories and battle scars to show
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
At least I know, I'll have stories and battle scars to show
I sit and recount all the things that you said
Contemplating right and wrong
Separating broken promises from deeds done
All the while I smile, shake my head
You dare not beat a path, you follow them instead
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
Bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
At least I know, I'll have stories and battle scars to show
If only you could hear
The things they say about you when you're not near
They see us all as sheep
Just another problem solved to keep their lives sweet
And all the while they laugh and count their bread
You dare not beat a path, you follow them instead
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
At least I know, I'll have stories and battle scars to show
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
Put your foot down
Put your foot down
Put your foot down and go
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
So bring me heartbreak, bring me failure
Bring me glorious defeat
Bring the unknown, bring me danger
Keep your mediocrity
At least I know, I'll have stories and battle scars to show
