There's a battle boiling.
It's closer than you think.
The bombs keep you awake at night.
The shots fireΒ Β towards you.
You won't die though...You'll live.
The battle is in your heart.
The wounds are gruesome and they never heal.
This war is in your mind.
You are fighting yourself.
You are the enemy.
You won't die though...You'll live.
The battle is never ending.
The battle was there before you knew...
It will end if I...
Close my eyes!
Dig into the sea of of my spirit.
Allow the endless tears of my anguished soul to flow.
God hear me now!
Do You look at me with despair?
This battle consumes me.
In the deep of the night the burst of the bombs are magnified.
In my spirit there is an answer for peace.
Dig into the sea of of my spirit.
Come face to face with the ugly and gruesome.
Expose my wounds and my shame.
I will not run from my own shadow.
I will not be afraid to face the darkness.
The anguish will not burn forever.
I won't die.
I'll live.
