I'm standing on the front lines
I'm fighting for my soul
I've walked a self destructive lonely road
I read the warning signs but
I was too blind to see
I had to feel the pain till I believed
I have a purpose
This is war
This is war
Since the day I was born
I would 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
My pity feeds destruction
My hunger turns to greed
But nothing ever fills this hole in me
No peace on the horizon
No peace in anything
I had to hurt myself till I believed
I have a purpose
This is war
This is war
Since the day I was born
I would 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
I will fight
For my 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 would 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
