Mindwar Ii
i came across the water
to fight for inner peace
raise sword and shield
'gainst th other side of me
but it's hard to fight the demons
that are surrounding me
when my own hands
are the enemies
and i'm so afraid to fight
oh, what if i don't win?
and should i lose,
can i fight again?
if i lost would i have the courage
to just pull the pin?
then to grip this bomb
to live and die two men
i came across the water
to fight the inner beast
to take hold of his heart
bring me to my knees
but it's hard to find the courage
to point this gun at me
if i kill myself
i'll be so lonely
