The War in My Mind
The world seems to slow
Everything rushes by
Smiling laughter
Hidden tears
A smile to cover darkest fears
Little do they know
But the question is why
Smiling laughter
Hidden tears
Deepest sorrow throughout the years
Falling to the Earth below
Twirling through the pitch black sky
Joy and passion
Life and light
Ashy snow
A hopeless fight
Hands extended
Seem to show
Hope is nigh
Light is rationed
I must hold tight
To lose my grip
This I know
The world consumed by darkest night
As their love falls like snow
The burning rumble shouts out why
You see the compassion
Who is it you fight
The icy rain or the gentle snow
Dawns first rays break the night
The world begins to slow
Clouds cover the sky
Smiling laugher
Hidden tears
The wisps of darkness soon appear
At a crossroads
Which way to go
Dark and light divide the sky
Smiling laughter
Hidden tears
Will you let the sorrows stay for years
