LYRICS (transcribed by me. I haven't checked them over yet, so there may be some errors.)


---
They Say
Scars on Broadway
---

I walk the line, the line I choose
I see the people in front of me.
I climb the wall, the wall of news
I watch them show the tragedy.

If you were me, could you defend
The given rights to all of man.
Let's fuck the world with all its trend
They say it's all about to end.
They say it's all about to end.
They say. They say.

There's a prison that's gone but the fear lives on
I watch you walking on the dotted line.
Maybe you don't see what's in front of me.
Maybe you won't stand the test of time.
For we live in sin, for we will win
I watch the president kiss his family.
For we live in sin, for we will win
I watch the president fuck society.

If you were me, could you defend
The given rights to all of man.
Let's fuck the world with all its trend
They say it's all about to end.
They say it's all about to end.
They say. They say.

I fall in love with the old times.
I never mentioned my old mind.

Let's fuck the world with all its trend.
Thank God, it's all about to end.
They say it's all about to end.
They say. They say.
They say. They say.
They say it's all about to end.

That's pretty much what I got. Except it's 'my own mind' not 'the old mind'

ok this is why i love daron. this song is so clearly about something! (abu ghraib, end of bush presidency.) serj disappointed me by being so oblique -- i know he stands for many things, but lyrically he's very coy.

go daron! butt rock (the headbanger icon is in time with the song! Very Happy )

(and thanks for transcribing the lyrics, redsox -- great job!)

Amazing. This is exactly what I wanted and expected from Daron. His voice sounds really close to his "old" voice (Toxicity era) but retains his Hyp/Mez tone as well Razz

Serj is supposed to be at Coachella..
I think its a little crazy.
Yes I would say this is pretty on.
And something that I have been mulling around in my brain and did discuss with a friend.
Its about the lines:
" I fall in love with the old times.
I never mentioned my old mind.
"
Like a hopeful SOAD fan I think he could be referring to System.
Its still early and these are just someones transcription of the lyrics but..
I was thinking that with the first line hes talking about how he loves all the time that they spent together and all that they did.
And for the second, now that there not together he doesn't talk about it anymore?

Anyway this is just silliness from me.. But I had to say it.

^^ I've been thinking of that, too. So if it's about System, I think maybe he referrs to the old times where he couldn't really show himself... but I don't know 'cause he could..

It sounds like he's dissing SOAD because he never got to speak his mind.
If so, fuck you Daron.
