Acoustic Cover of the Song 'Scars' by the band Papa Roach.
Lyrics:
"Scars"
I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And my scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel
Drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channel all your pain
And I can't help you fix yourself
You're making me insane
All I can say is
[Chorus:]
I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel
I tried to help you once
Against my own advice
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand
[Chorus]
I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever come around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause you're drowning in the water
And I tried to grab your hand
And I left my heart open
But you didn't understand
But you didn't understand
Go fix yourself
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
[Chorus x2]

I am a big fan of the original song and of the band, so I used Fiverr.com and paid a guy five bucks to cover some songs of their best songs. Well worth it, I think.
I was prepared to close this window shortly after you started playing just because of the sheer fact that it was different than the original song. Needless to say I kept listening and discovered that I loved it :) Great job, your singing in this was great and you made a genuine cover. Props~

@corsairyankee oh!..lol....well I feel he still added a bit of himself into it...but yeah I understand what your saying about musicians copying their influences before they find their own voice that totally makes sense.

You sound pretty good man, and I like what you did with the guitar at points. Keep working on it and try to minimize your head movements if you can. At such a close camera view, it detracts from the music a bit.
