SELDEM - War In My Thoughts

Morning comes late Coffee gone cold on the desk News on Sound off I’m already a mess I argue with ghosts That sound just like me Every quiet corner Feels like a front line scene There’s a war in my thoughts again Tracer lines across my head Every doubt a little grenade Pulling pins in my own bed I surrender Then I reload Same old battle Same old road There’s a war in my thoughts again And I can’t call a truce with myself Smiles for the world White flag stitched to my sleeve Laugh at their jokes While I grit my teeth I dodge friendly fire From the ones who care They say I’m “fine” But they’re not in there There’s a war in my thoughts again Tracer lines across my head Every doubt a little grenade Pulling pins in my own bed I surrender Then I reload Same old battle Same old road There’s a war in my thoughts again And I can’t call a truce with myself Tell me If I speak it Will the sirens fade Or will the shadows Just learn my name I’m tired of marching Circles in my skull I just want one quiet night With my mind dull There’s a war in my thoughts again Tracer lines across my head Every doubt a little grenade Pulling pins in my own bed I surrender Then I reload Same old battle Same old road There’s a war in my thoughts again (again, again) And I just want peace from myself
