• Blood and pain is the stuff of war
    You push and make me remember the horror
    I try so hard just to keep it together
    I'm slipping I won't be able to hold on forever

    You started this war not me
    You wouldn't give up and just let things be
    But I showed you the terror of what I've seen
    Yet you still won't give up and leave me be

    It's all still there in the back of my mind
    It won't ever fade with the passage of time
    It's instinct and that's all that I know
    To kill and harm and to make blood flow

    But I refuse to take lives so you'll know who's to blame
    For this one man war against you and many names
    You want to take away mine so why should I care
    About what happens to you, that's what I call fair

    But you got him to stop me
    To try to convince me
    That my war is over, but I tell him he's wrong
    My war will never end until my breath is gone

    I buried so many friends along with my soul
    One even died as he cried my name and on my arm kept his hold
    But for now I'll let it go and accept the past
    As the reason for the emptiness in all I have left
