War Within - Decadence

The leash around my neck

Is pulling me through pain

Don’t want to keep following

Struggling to get free again

Stop or soon I’m gonna burst

I don’t want to make it hurt

Psyche turned to an empty rift

Killed all that was left inside of it

You are pulling me through pain and hate

Through shattered glass in agony

Torn and slit on a blackened path

My misery is my war within

The wall of strength has crumbled

The wall of battle is by my side

I am stuck in this pattern

The depression eating me alive

I try to compensate my mind

To overcome what I have to hide

My mask covering my face

To hide the fading appearance

I am never going to fail

I’ll prove it when I prevail

To show the suffering by repay

I am screaming inside

But I’ll find my way

A war heart is what’s left inside of me

It’s going to lead my way

I’m on my own again

No one can betray

I’ll fight along with misery

Hit me, punish, torment me

War within

Never to get to me

You are pulling me through pain and hate

Through shattered glass in agony

Torn and slit on a blackened path

My misery is my war within

The wall of strength has crumbled

The wall of battle is by my side

I am stuck in this pattern

The depression eating me alive

I try to compensate my mind

To overcome what I have to hide

My mask covering my face

To hide the fading appearance

I am never going to fail

I’ll prove when I prevail

To show the suffering by repay

I am screaming inside

But I’ll find my way

War

I’ve asked it to be given to me

Sought until I would find the door

Everyone who asks receives

Who seeks will find and destroy

Life is the eternal test

Life is the temporary trust

Will the door be opened again for me?

It is my hope and phobia

You are pulling me through pain and hate

Through shattered glass in agony

Torn and slit on a blackened path

My misery is my war within

The wall of strength has crumbled

The wall of battle is by my side

I am stuck in this pattern

The depression eating me alive

I try to compensate my mind

To overcome what I have to hide

My mask covering my face

To hide the fading appearance

I am never going to fail

I’ll prove it when I prevail

To show the suffering by repay

I am screaming inside

But I’ll find my way
