GlennTrue Failure

I grew up fast on a working class streetFirst thing I learned was life don't come cheapTechnical school it was a waste of timeMakin' robots for some factory lineGot my first tattoo when I was 16The rebel had lost his teenage queenI'd taken a stand for an outlaw's lifeMy ma's words kept ringin', your scarred for lifeShe said you're scarred, you've been scarredScarred for life Scarred for life I fought my way through the trouble and strife I was scarred Scarred for life My reputation it cuts like a knifeI spent some time a guest of the stateI got out and wanted to go straightPeople don't forgive, the police force don't forgetI was jailed for crimes I did not commitI was scarred, I was scarredScarred for life Scarred for life I fought my way through the trouble and strife I was scarred Scarred for life My reputation it cuts like a knife I was scarred Scarred for life Been knocked around had a hell of a life I was scarred Scarred for life I fought my way through the trouble and strifeI fought tooth and nail, every inch of the wayI got scars...to prove itI was in love for keeps that timeBut rock'n'roll was still on my mindShe was young and true and so full of lifeAnd the pain went deep, I was scarred for life
