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 (I have a purpose)
