The War

You sought to tame the beast in me
What a vicious love–you feast for free
I've been bound my my own cord
I fought your battles, in self-distaste
I fight the war
Draining trust in your direction
You're just a mirror–oh my reflection
I've been down this range before
I fought your battles, behind my face
I fight the war
Mask a lie–you're so polite
To the source, I hold the light
Hear the sound of my cell door
I fought your battles, without trace
I fight the war
I fight the war
I fight the war
I fight the war
Hide the noise inside my head
You fight for life now–escape what's dead
Sort the wreckage while wrecking more
I fought your battles within the waste
I fight the war
I fight the war
I fight the war
I fight the war
I hear the bullets whistle past my ear
Thank God I learned to leave behind all my fear
I'll catch the next one straight between my teeth
As long as I can keep what's underneath
