Scars - Flotsam & Jetsam

Stare up into the sky, who’s in charge

Will it matter which bills are paid when she decides to do us harm

Forces of nature destiny control

Even the rich can’t buy their lives

When death becomes her toll

No conscience no love a heartless dare

No matter where you hide she’s there

Rape the land, bite the hand that feeds you

One day gonna take it away

Feel the chill from her icy stare

No self control, it will take its toll

The life we’re living here

Scars on her face, filth in her hair, pollution in her eyes

We kill the creature she creates

Then we wonder why she cries

Scars on her face, filth in her hair, pollution in her eyes

We kill the creatures she creates

Then we wonder why she cries

With the power she possesses, wipe clean the slate again

Mass operation or daddy’s cash

It just won’t matter who’s your friend

No conscience no love a heartless dare

No matter where you hide she’s there

Rape the land, bite the hand that feeds you

One day gonna take it away

Feel the chill from her icy stare

No self control, it will take its toll

The life we’re living here

Scars on her face, filth in her hair, pollution in her eyes

We kill the creature she creates

Then we wonder why she cries

Scars on her face, filth in her hair, pollution in her eyes

We kill the creatures she creates

Then we wonder why she cries

Written in the studio, it took three days to write

and record.

Lyrics came to mind during an Arizona

lightning storm.

Trash the place!
