I Need A Battle - Lyrics
I hear a warning
Come through the morning glow
Care for the forest that you’ve grown...
But I've just awoken,
Should just keep my mind on the road
I tend to get lost when times are low...
Cause everything that I’m running from,
Is just me in another form
And it doesn't feel good at all...
Cause I don’t wanna be terrified,
Cause that’s not what it takes to make things right...
And I don’t wanna be torn from life,
So I’ll just let it go until it’s time...
Cause I don’t wanna fight but I might need a battle...
So I’ll choose my weapon,
And wait for the day to be done
No need to savour setting suns, suns no...
And I’ve tried to be gracious,
To be less impatient and trust
But sometimes my faith is overcome...
Cause everything that I once ignored,
Is coming back with a greater force
And it doesn’t feel good at all...
Cause I don’t wanna be terrified,
Cause that’s not what it takes to make things right...
And I don’t wanna be torn from life,
So I’ll just let it go until it’s time...
Cause I don’t wanna fight but I might need a battle...
