  • War over me

    I'm standing on the front lines
    I'm fighting for my soul
    I've walked a self-destructive lonely road

    I wrap the warning signs
    But I was too blind to see
    I had to feel the pain
    'Til I believed

    (I have a purpose)
    This is war
    This is war
    Since the day I was born
    I will die just to live, just to bleed

    I will fight for my life
    Turn my darkness to light
    This is war
    It's a war over me
    War over me
    War over me

    My pretty face destruction
    My hunger turns to greed
    But nothing ever fills this whole in me

    No peace on the horizon
    No peace in anything
    I had to hurt myself
    'Til I believed

    (I have a purpose)
    This is war
    This is war
    Since the day I was born
    I will die just to live, just to bleed

    I will fight for my life
    Turn my darkness to light
    This is war
    It's a war over me

    I'm caught up in the crossfire
    I'm caught up in the pain
    This gift of desperation
    Is exactly what I need
    I'm falling like an empire
    I'm calling out your name
    I'm locked in my own prison
    Tell me help is on the way
    Tell me help is on the way

    I will fight for this life
    Turn my darkness to light
    This is war
    It's a war over me

    This is war
    This is war
    Since the day I was born
    I will die just to live, just to bleed

    I will fight for my life
    Turn my darkness to light
    This is war
    It's a war over me

    This is war
    It's a war over me
    War over me
