This War Inside Me

I'm fighting a war within myself A war of sadness A war of defeat There's a war in my head It's filled with rejection Refusal And dismissal I'm on my own side Alone in the silence I will fight this war of mine The silence is violent It has no pity No murcy whatsoever I'm fighting this war But it's not fighting back But still I'm on the losing side
