Salvation within reaching hand
But struggle against the odds never seems to end
Distracted with outward threat
When wars are waging inside your fucking head
You never asked me why
The strength to be alive
Silent war like crushing tide
Clash with rage from the inside
Blaze unleashed, on these knees you bow
There's no rain and no hope from above
Ignorant, of what lies beneath
Accept all your conflicts and spit them through your teeth
Impulsion, like hammering nails
Initiate the battle that hibernates in ourselves
You never ask me why
The strength to be alive
Silent war
"A bunch of us have a habit of engaging in conflicts of ideas that surround us and we somehow always have someone else to blame for our own problems and demons. Before referring and conflicting the things that are around we must first deal with the conflicts that are piling up inside of us. Only when we are at peace with ourselves we can truly stand strong through life outside."
