[Verse 1]
I have my scars, you have yours
Don't let them take your power
Don't leave it alone in the final hours
They'll take your soul, they'll take your power
Don't close your eyes and hope for the best
The dark is out there, the light is going fast
Until the final hours, your life's forever changed
And all the rights that you had yesterday
Are taken away
And now you're afraid
You should be afraid
Should be afraid
[Verse 2]
Because everything I fought for
Long ago in a dream is gone
Someone said the dream is not over
The dream has just begun, or
Is it a nightmare?
Is it a lasting scar?
It is unless you save it and that's that
Unless you stand up and take it back
And take it back
[Chorus]
I have my scars, you have yours
Don't let them take your power
Don't leave it alone in the final hours
They'll take your soul, they'll take your power
Unless you stand up and take it back
Try to see the future and get mad
It's slipping through your fingers, you don't have what you had
You don't have much time to get it back
See pop shows near Chicago
Get tickets as low as $399

[Verse 3]
I wanna be the lighthouse
Bring all of you together
Bring it out in a song
Bring it out in stormy weather
Tell them the story
[Pre-Chorus]
(Oh) I wanna teach 'em to fight
(Oh) I wanna tell 'em this has happened before
(Oh) Don't let it happen again
[Chorus]
I have my scars, you have yours
Don't let them take your power
Don't leave it alone in the final hours
They'll take your soul, they'll take your power
Unless you save it and that's that
Unless you stand up and take it back
Try to see the future and get mad
It's slippin' through your fingers, you don't have what you had
You don't have much time
[Bridge]
You gotta get in the game
You gotta learn how to play
You gotta make a change
You gotta do it today
[Verse 4]
In the midnight hour, they'll slam the door
Make you forget what you were fighting for
Put you back in your place, they'll shut you down
You better learn how to fight, you better say it out loud
[Outro]
(Oh)
(Oh)
I have my scars, you have yours
Don't let them take your power

Until the final hours, your life's forever changed

(17,780 posts)5. Great lyrics, but unimpressed with the music and performance
I dont think this song is going to top many playlists, certainly not of young voters.
A nice gesture, but ultimately not going to make much of a difference.
