the devil on my should tells me hes proud of me
that it takes a real man to look out for himself and no one else
i dont want to believe that
but sometimes its easier to just stay silent
i wish i knew how to speak out
i never had a problem with words
but only when talking to someone else
theres a wear inside me thats all my own
and i need to talk like a king to keep myself afloat
but how much longer until everyone knows?
theres a war inside me thats all my own
theres a war inside me thats all my own
i should have started to take my own advice
from the moment that i started giving it
but i can only control what happens from here
and if none of this had happened
then i couldnt have heard
the angel on my shoulder tells me hes proud of me
that it takes a real man to live for everyone else before himself
i know i believe it
and itll never get easier
but it will always be worth it
theres a war inside me thats all my own
im still learning to speak out against myself
and stay on the path i truly want to be on
though ive lost my way more times that i have wished
my heart is constant and willing
i still believe that we were made for more
that what ive been doing lately
this end of depression will be the start of getting back what i have lost
because i had become conceited
but im making it back to where i last left off
and so ive shown you my heart
will you restore me?
