My words should comfort you
Instead they're like bullets to your head
My hands should pressure to your wounds
But they only scar and bruise

Only I know why dark waters run deep inside
You're so close to my rivers edge, just don't fall

Inside I'm still fighting the battles that blind me
It's my iron curtain that you'll never bring down
Don't try to disarm me of weapons that guard me
Can't hide from my enemy now because it's my war
It's my war

Although I want you on my side
The soldier fights alone sometimes
If I run cover me, but don't take a hit for me

Inside I'm still fighting the battles that blind me
It's my iron curtain that you'll never bring down
Don't try to disarm me of weapons that guard me
Can't hide from my enemy now because it's my war

I don't want to be saved
I want you to understand
That I can't be fixed by you
When this war is over I'm coming home

Inside I'm still fighting the battles that blind me
It's my iron curtain that you'll never bring down
Don't try to disarm me of weapons that guard me
Can't hide from my enemy now because it's my war
It's my war
It's my war
