War-Within
My life isn't a fairy tale
There isn't a prince that will come
The conflicts have taken over
The villains have won
I try and do me
Forget my past
But the flood is still not over
And I'm sinking fast
My pain is so far hidden away
And so hard to see
That only God really knows
What is going on inside me
I'm waiting for that one change
That one change to set me free
To keep me
Help me
And guide me through the hell and frustration inside me
Trying to do whats right
Only to go left
Always on my tippy toes
Not knowing what to do next
Getting by in life
Trying to be next
At the top of the line
Trying to be the best
Even though this conflict may try to win
In the end i know I can
Be strong and defeat
The war within
