Lately things they do not feel the same   What we've become, full of hatred full of shame   Once was a face now is only just a name   The gift of life that we were treating like a game then      Something else dies inside me   Stripped away by another act of violence   Don't try to look cause you won't find me   When I'm not there      And the scars that we wear, they will never go away   And the friends that we lose, they can never be replaced   Tell me what its going to take and how many have to die   Before we put away our hate and we open up our eyes      Sixteen years old when I lost my first friend   I tried to teach a broken heart how to bend   Twenty-four and it happened yet again   More broken hearts, is it ever going to end cause      Something else dies inside me   Stripped away by another act of violence   Don't try to look cause you won't find me   When I'm not there      And the scars that we wear, they will never go away   And the friends that we lose, they can never be replaced   Tell me what its going to take and how many have to die   Before we put away our hate and we open up our eyes      God damn this feeling, don't want to feel this again   My heart is bleeding, and your hate has taken my friend      Twenty-two, passed away before his time   Too quick to use our fists instead of our minds   So concerned with whats yours and what is mine   Well maybe we can learn to love this time cause      If something else dies inside me   I'll run away yeah   You're never going to find me   The things I see always remind of of how unfair it is      And the scars that we wear, they will never go away   And the friends that we lose, they can never be replaced   Tell me whats it going to take and how many have to die   Till we put away our hate and we open up our eyes   Until we open up our eyes, until we open up our eyes, until we open up our eyes   Tell me whats it going to take and how many have to die
