Collecting Scars Lyrics - Singles - Against All Authority

Close your eyes and shut your mouth 

Because it's all the same and it won't change with you or without 

They've got your number and that's all you are 

To them it makes no difference, we're collecting scars again 

One day soon we're gonna run out of room 

Because we've carried our share digging graves and building the tombs 

That make up this town that keeps us locked down 

We're locked down 

Locked down and collecting scars again 

Hey, we're seeing stars 

And spilling blood, it's not yours, it's ours 

We're locked down and collecting scars 

While oil fields burn and bodies char 

Remain silent with all that you know 

As we rise to the top on the backs of those living below 

Breathe easy, you're safe where you are 

Go about your business and leave us collecting the scars 

Produce doom and we consume 

We're all enslaved filling graves and filling the tombs 

That make up this town that keeps us locked out 

We're locked down 

Locked down and collecting scars again 

Hey, we're seeing stars 

And spilling blood, it's not yours, it's ours 

We're locked down and collecting scars 

We gotta know who the hell you think you are 

Safe at home while the world is spinning out of control 

From the lies you tell and the power you hold 

And you steal and you kill, let the truth be told 

Let's burn this town and we'll all sit around 

Getting warmer by the fire with friends 

Collecting scars again 

What comes around goes around and I'm down 

And out but coming back again 

Collecting scars again 

The burning embers make a sound I'll remember 

Forever as I watch it descend 

Collecting scars again 

What comes around goes around and I'm down 

And out but coming back again 

Collecting scars again
