Zack Hemsey "At War With Me" Songtext

At War With Me

Only notions he considers are hollowed and lost thoughtsVisions that confer only sorrow that time’s caughtA ghost upon a body so shoddy and scared softA mind so terrified it’s resigned and it’s shut offBut that’s to be expected when a boy has been selectedIn his hands is placed a weapon as a soldier then directs himShoot upon your fatherTo refuse you’ll burn in horrorNo pursuit of pride and honorHe just stands immersed in sweatFamily eyes connectHe holds his rifle to his chestHis heart is heavy with regret as he unloads with his offenceAnd “in the name of freedom” is chanted to loud applauseWhile planted in his brain is an image of Hell crossedSobbing in his spirit and fearing the holocaustHe must compose himself or risk being the next lostNow every shadow hides a face he’s shot or blown to dustWith every day he’s dying and getting more out of touchAnd every night he dreams he ends the death machineAnd finds a way to run from his stranger and this regimeAs morning leaves him choking and full of griefHe’s hoping today will be the day that brings him a reprieve

[Chorus:]If only we could find the fortuneInstead of misfortuneWould be see it’s out of proportionOr have we cut off our feetNo way to retreatIn nothing but defeatBut if we can get us lostAnd try to take it offCould we clean up this distortionTry to make it softenAre we all orphans nowHave we exhausted nowAnd I never loathed a lifeBut now I lead this war with me

I suspect my calm’s Manchurian in natureJust a matter of some time before she makes me waste ‘emYet I possess no fury toward this strangerNo I just feel allured by coming dangerChange her I wouldn’tI want to ride the current of her stormNourish on her swordAnd let my soul absorbAnd he of pure mind, let him to me accordBenevolence to ward off temptation that I have stored'Cuz lord knows the craving in me growsWith every step I took I knew the devil in me roseWaiting on a precipice so delicately posedA long and lovely fall no will or fire can opposeBut the beauty of her form brings violenceAnd I succumb to dancing with this SirenAnd I can feel the weight of this unloadPerception has been altered now I see what she’s bestowedThe wrath in me explodes and the sins of men are foundThe power of her sound reveals malevolence aboundTo he who sees no heaven amongst the cloudsThe reckoning is coming, get ready for buried groundYet I can feel such impurity withinI must expel the fiend and let its hole cave inAnd so to singe this evil now I pull the pinBut clutch it to my heart to end the journey of my twin

[Chorus]
