Chemical Scar

poetry or lyrics. not sure, but I dig it.

A pack of cigarettes in your pocket,

Van's strapped to your feet

As you travel over this white sea

Dreaming of worlds afar,

Breathing in a chemical scar

With love in your heart,

And hate in your art

In this small town,

You're sure you'll fall beneath

Though dreams keep you afloat,

Give you hope.

A pack of cigarettes in your pocket,

A few bills in your wallet

As you travel over this white sea

Well she has a smile that could make you shed your scars,

But you're nothing but a stranger in a miraculous web

Just traveling over this white sea

So tell me what you makes you believe that love will set you free?

Is it because that is all you've ever been told?

Or do you believe it deep in your heart?

Well you spill your frustration into your art,

You play the strings with hate in your cold fingers,

But you'll never forget..

You're just one being traveling over this white sea

A half a pack of cigarettes in your pocket,

Just breathing in that chemical scar...

Your mind many worlds away
