SCARS © 1/14/03 by David Stackhouse (of Five O Clock Shadow www.focs.com)
There - the footprints from where I’ve been
Here - a blueprint of a man without fear
But I’m haunted by emotions
I’ve harbored through the years
And I’m tired of spinning tires on an icy road
With the pedal to the floor
I don’t wanna carry these scars around
I don’t wanna carry these scars around
I don’t wanna carry these scars anymore
I am a museum filled with artifacts
They’ve nothing much to offer but anxiety attacks
No medals of honor, just a few scraps
I’m so weary of dragging my fury down a littered beach
With my feet stuck in the sand
I don’t wanna carry these scars around
I don’t wanna carry these scars around
I don’t wanna carry these scars
It’s like I ran from home, but kept looking back
So I’m gonna dig a hole, then lower my tattered sack
And never mourn the buried past
There - the footprints from where I’ve been
Here - a blueprint of a man without fear
So I’m shedding all the baggage
I’ve acquired through the years
And I’m wired - so excited to hit the open road
With the pedal to the floor
And I’m not gonna carry those scars anymore
No I’m not gonna carry those scars anymore
I’m not gonna carry those scars anymore
No I’m not gonna carry those scars anymore
I love these guys. No matter how long in between seeing them there shows still have a feeling of "home" to it. You never know whats going to happen when they take stage. Will Dan come out in a Spartan cheerleading shirt? Will Stack on his mask? What story will O have? But you know its always going to be fun. Its been 6ish years and I wouldnt trade any of it for anything else. To all FOCS guys(past & present) and all FOCS reps, no matter where you are, I love you guys! And until next time...Keep On Keepin On...
