War Is My Will Lyrics

War is my will
Is it nature or nurture
the reason I'm fucked up inside?
My whole life I've been asking why?
Will this ever die?
I need peace and time
A chance to heal my mind
I cannot sustain or shift the blame
All these things that define me and drive me
Are crushing my soul
Poisoned pride, now weaponized
Ignored the signs, fought against the tide
For way too long

The pyres burn, the worm it turns
I do not condone this
War is my will

Nothing I do is good enough
I'm so damn tired of giving a fuck
Exiled in purgatory
Cut off my nose to spite my face
I do not recognize this place
I am no longer me

Fall away, this veil of sanity
Raw beneath, teeth bared to strike
I fear what I will become
Bow, crawl in your subservience
I am your master
Bite, gnaw, devour your insight
Nothing to treasure
Something is broken in me

Rise from my knees to my feet
Now take it back
I refuse to lie down to the fiend inside
Dragged into the light
For all to see
