With a runtime of seven and a half minutes, Ozma’s Battlescars runs parallel to their idol’s Only in Dreams, taking the place of being their flagship song while being too long to have been a single.

[Verse 1]
Of all the shooting stars I knew
I never felt at ease with anyone but you
Don't ever wonder where I go
Remember that the grass still grows beneath the snow
[Pre-Chorus 1]
When everything around turns blue
Just fall asleep and wake when it's all through
[Chorus]
There's battle scars on all my guitars
But still I come out here and play
[Verse 2]
And now I've lost your touch again
I know I'm only one in twenty thousand men
I promise not to let you go
Just close your eyes and sleep right through the falling snow
[Pre-Chorus 2]
When I finally wash ashore
I'm coming back to kiss the girl I kissed before
Of all the shooting stars I knew
I never fell for anyone but you
[Chorus]
There's battle scars on all my guitars
But I still come out here and play
There's battle scars on my face and my arms
But you still kiss me everyday
There's battle scars on all my guitars
But I still come out everyday
There's battle scars on my face and my arms
But you still kiss me anyway
[Chorus]
There's battle scars on all my guitars
But I still come out here and play
There's battle scars on my face and my arms
But you still kiss me everyday
There's battle scars on all my guitars
But I still come out anyway
There's battle scars on my face and my arms
But you still kiss me anyway
